Moyo Odugbesan
Hi, I’m Moyo! I’m a grad student in Brand & Media Strategy at ETSU. I love food (trying new dishes is my happy place), dancing, getting lost in a good book, and watching movies-though here’s the twist: I actually enjoy spoilers. They make the story even better for me! I dream of becoming a User Experience Researcher because why not?

I also enjoy my current Graduate Assistantship as an administrative proctor with the University Testing Services it has given me the chance to grow my organizational skills while supporting students in a different capacity.
