Who am I?

My name is Tracy L. Lyon. I am a fresh graduate of Washington State University Vancouver with some extra life experience that not all graduates have. I have been in several successful positions before going back to school and I'm ready to apply some of that life experience, plus the new skills I've gained at WSUV to a whole new career. I love the work I've begun doing with Digital Technology, and can spend hours wrapped up in various projects. I am looking forward to moving into a full time Developing career. I think my accomplishments will show that I can become a valuable member of your team!

Social Media

I have been studying social media during my coursework at WSU, and recently completed my HootSuite Platform Certification. I am currently working on my Google Ad Words, as well as further HootSuite certification. I participated in a Twitter research project this fall, and completed a formal research paper about the results. (See my Writing Samples for further information.)
