We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Nicole Ocampo. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Nicole below.

Alright, Nicole thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. How did you learn to do what you do? Knowing what you know now, what could you have done to speed up your learning process? What skills do you think were most essential? What obstacles stood in the way of learning more?

I attended Monmouth University, where I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Communication with a focus on Public Relations and Journalism, and a minor in Media Productions. My time there provided me with a well-rounded education and exposed me to diverse career paths. During my sophomore year, I was elected Vice President of Communication for Alpha Omicron Pi, which ignited my passion for marketing and social media.

Since graduating, I’ve gained valuable experience through trial and error, and by staying informed about trends in marketing and social media from fellow professionals online. Looking back, I believe I could have accelerated my learning by connecting with other marketers and starting my business, Ocampo Socials, earlier in college.

Key skills that have been crucial in my journey include organization and a willingness to take risks. Being organized has significantly streamlined my work, while taking risks has often led to unexpected solutions to challenges.

One significant obstacle I faced was the impact of Covid-19, which shifted classes online and required marketers and creators to adapt to new norms. Despite this challenge, I learned valuable lessons in adaptability and creativity, finding new ways to navigate these changes.

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.

What do you think is the goal or mission that drives your creative journey?

What do you find most rewarding about being a creative?
