Summary
A recent university graduate with a Bachelor of Arts in Folklore determined to achieve a Masters in Folklore. During my undergraduate degree and work, I obtained strong research skills, an excellent work ethic, and a passion for folklore and I need to learn more. I plan to expand my learning and experience through Memorial University's Master of Folklore program to achieve a PhD in Folklore. Thus, I am determined to join this field to preserve and continue the tradition of folklore.
