Hi guys! My name is Ashlyn Martin. I was born and raised here in Tampa, Florida. I currently live about 20 minutes from campus with my friends. I am a senior here at USF majoring in Mass Communications. I love to travel in my free time. Some of my favorite places have been Spain, and Ireland. I also recently just adopted a puppy! His name is Oakley, a two month old lab mix. I also love going to the beach in my free time! I work as a sales associate at Nordstrom and I love making new customer connections and helping people find outfits. My favorite social media outlet is TikTok! I love seeing everyones creativity through the platform and all the different types of videos people come up with. I have made a blog before in a previous social media class but I no longer post on it. I don't have much experience reading blogs but I look forward to learning and growing this semester!
