My name is Trista and I recently finished my undergraduate degree at Clark University, in Sociology with a minor in Communications & Culture. My honors thesis was on the "Technology Generation Gap" which examined how different generations of people use social media technologies, how they relate to them, and what it all means for the future of identity creation and community.

I am at Clark this year to finish my Master's of Science in Professional Communication and am working with faculty and Clark's marketing department to introduce social media into academia for research and classroom purposes.

I am the teaching assistant for the Social Media Marketing & Communications class and am part of the class to help contribute my knowledge and experiences with social media and how to effectively engage readers and customers with your social media strategy.
