Intention Statement

There are many reasons why I am pursuing a master’s degree at Full Sail University. Mainly, I have written many things over the years, but I have never had any formal creative writing education. 

I desire to gain the necessary skills and knowledge to become a successful writer in today’s entertainment industry. 

Over the course of the next twelve months, I want to develop myself personally and professionally to obtain a job that will bring me closer to mastery.  

I would like to gain the confidence I need by sharing my work, learning industry standards, further developing my career plans, gaining knowledge, and accomplishing goals. 

In the past, I have been hesitant to share my work with others because I was fearful that I may fail. However, I realize that to achieve my goals I can no longer hide. Full Sail is a great space to learn from mistakes and improve before entering the creative-active phase in life.

I am thrilled that I have an opportunity to pursue an apprenticeship. Not only am I able to learn from successful professionals in the field, but I can also learn a lot from my peers. Due to my lack of confidence, I haven’t made attempts to network in the past. One of my biggest goals during the course of the next twelve months is to strengthen my interpersonal skills. I would like to take initiative to improve this area by doing things like reaching out to course directors when I need help and making connections with fellow students via discussion boards. 

I know many challenges lie ahead of me this next year, and beyond, but I welcome those challenges with open arms. I know that obstacles will help me to grow and become a master in my field. 

I look forward to becoming the best version of myself.
