My name is Maura Pilafas!

I am a washed up state champion high school athlete, long-distance cat mom, and am a proud 4.98 rated Uber passenger. I would describe myself as a unserious and outgoing introvert who enjoys being with my friends, going on walks, exercising, and travel. I love thrifting at the Goodwill bins and chronically posting my every thought on my personal blog/newsletter @mbpilafas on Instagram!

On a professional level, I am junior at the lovely University of Missouri (Fight Tiger!) currently studying Strategic Communications at the renowned School of Journalism. In addition, I am minoring in Business and working towards a certificate in Digital Marketing at the Trulaske School of Business.

I am currently looking for internships, shadowing opportunities and summer jobs in Digital Marketing, Public Relations or Social Media Marketing and Communications (specifically in the Chicagoland area and Saint Louis, but am open to talk of relocation).
