What I’ve learned so far at Pushing the Envelope, Inc. includes a thousand new things. I’ve written news releases, media alerts, put together presentations and so much more. I’ve also learned a great deal about graphic design, how to re-size photos and graphic images and how to incorporate creativity into PR. It’s nice to see how things are applied outside the classroom and outside my textbooks.
