About Me

"Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill."
     ~ Buddha

 My name is Maddie Gionet. I am a journalism/mass communication major with a minor in political science who will begin her Master's degree in integrated marketing communications in the Fall 2012 semester.
Il Messaggero, Newsroom in Rome
Don't ask me what I plan on doing with those two degrees because I change my mind everyday. All I can tell you is that I'm going to make a difference in this world. I'm not sure how I'm going to do that just yet, but it'll happen.
I love the outdoors - skiing, running, hiking, camping, you name it.
Double Black Diamonds are my favorite!
I love children -ski instructor and camp counselor.

I love volunteering, being a leader and making a difference in the lives of those I meet. I love living life.
Pure. Adrenaline.
Words for Life. As an aspiring journalist, words are everything to me. It's a way for me to make a change, promote a cause, inform the public about issues, the list goes on. Even with all the words I might write during my career, I think there are specific words we should all try to live by. They're words some people and organizations exemplify through their actions and good deeds. They're words for life.
