About Me
My name is Evelyn Wozniak and I am a 4th year student at Longwood University with a major in English and a minor in history and will be graduating in December of 2022. I served as a member of the Longwood History Club during 2018-2019 and worked closely as an intern under Greenwood librarians I also am currently working at Barnes and Noble inc. in order to further my knowledge of publishing relations and boom distribution. Ever since I was a child, it would only take force to pry my nose from a book and I spent even longer organizing any bookshelf I came across. I have dedicated my academic and professional career to appeasing that bookworm child inside myself, and I do not plan on stopping anytime soon. I am an enthusiastic, dedicated individual with a love for people, literature, and hands on experiences.
The assignments in my English 470 Professional Writing course have helped me understand the importance of knowing the different genres of writing as well as understanding the fundamentals of professional writing. I now consciously use elements I learned in order to review, edit, and create my work.
