Francesca is…

a girl with an unstoppable drive that just makes it happen.

To introduce myself, I’ll start off by saying I’m New York born and raised, a NYC Achiever (Staten Island native to be precise). I’m a senior at Marist College where I major in Digital Media with a concentration in Digital Arts & a dual minor in Advertising and Business with a Concentration in Marketing. A whole word jumble! Throughout my college career I’ve had 3 internships within Digital Marketing. I’ve discovered a love for working with not-for-profits with a specific passion for creativity routed in purpose. Yet, I’m also eager to experience the for profit world.

I aspire to be a creative director & I believe my course work and experience has paved great stepping stones as I begin the ‘real world’ in May of 2025 after I graduate.

Hi! I’m glad you’re here!

Now for the fun stuff—Some things to know about me:

  • I studied abroad in Florence, Italy for 4 months my junior year of college. I gained memorable lessons and opportunities that have helped shape me as a person, academically and socially (all while eating our way through the culinary delights of Europe).

  • I’m the VP and Social Media Director of the Marist Advertising Association. With this club, I’ve been able to attend multiple Ad agency tours and panels in NYC.

  • In 2023 I started working at Rosticceria Rossi & Sons, an Italian deli by my school. I learned how to make cannoli and have probably made hundreds since then.

  • I live by “Everything Happens For a Reason” like my mama always says!
