About me
My name is Aubrie Rizzo and I am a soon to be graduate of DePaul University. I am a Communication & Media Studies major with a double major in Media Cinema Studies. My interests in digital media and media technologies has led me to study Digital Culture. I think it is valuable to understand the importance of media studies and digital technologies that we are consumed with every single day. I am constantly plugged into my smartphone, laptop, or television. Without understanding what that means for myself or for society in general, it will be almost impossible to stop it from taking over my entire existence.
