Nick Pagonis is a motivated young mind who hails from Long Island, New York. He wishes to utilize his education and related work experience in a position which offers growth and personal enhancement. He graduated from Kings Park High School in 2018 and studied at Suffolk Community College for his first 2 years. He set his sights on a communications degree after much confusion and frustration as to what he wanted to do with his education. He finished his Professional Communications journey at Farmingdale State College for his last 3 years as an undergraduate. Now, having a much clearer picture as to his path and calling, he is currently pursuing a masters degree for Interactive Media and Communications at Quinnipiac University.
At the moment, he is undecided as to what he wants to specifically pursue in the field, but he’s eager to make a name for himself no matter what and by any means necessary! He has taken a curious look at all things marketing however, as an intriguing internship opportunity has arisen that he recently applied for. Nick became interested in interactive media and communications within the past few months after a long journey of searching for a career that suits him best. He prides himself as an excellent writer and being passionate about technology, so it’s only natural that he would be attracted to Quinnipiac’s ICM program.
Nick took the Design Sprints course to start off his masters degree trek, and he thoroughly enjoyed building a finance app from scratch with his team members. Learning the ins and outs of the Miro program, practicing techniques like Storyboarding, heat map voting, etc., and crafting a White Paper on the dangers of prevalent social media use in today’s society have been incredibly exciting and interesting for him. He’s already jumping right into his Writing Interactive Media and Visual Storytelling classes, having filled out a persona template for the latter!
