About Danny Cox
My name is Danny Cox, and ever since I was a wee lad, I’ve liked to talk. Not just talk, but communicate. I liked to communicate so much, in fact, that for most of the third grade I had a permanently reserved seat in the hallway.
Since then, I learned how to focus my communications energies, and even found a positive outlet for them. I am currently a Senior at Ohio University pursuing a Bachelor of Science of Journalism degree in Public Relations.
In my time here in Athens, Ohio, I have discovered that social media and search engine optimization, or SEO as it’s better known, are becoming major passions of mine.
My last big project, Trailerpark, showed me that it’s possible to bring some of my many interests together. As an actor, a photographer, a musician or an aspiring PR Professional, I always try to put my heart and soul into my work.
So far, I have found that utilizing web 2.0 tools to reach targeted audiences and media relations to be my favorite aspects of the very broad field of public relations.
I am hoping to take the things I have learned both in and out of the classroom here at Ohio University with me to the exciting city of Chicago after I graduate. If you have any advice or suggestions regarding specific firms or people to contact in Chicago, please feel free to let me know at dannycoxdidit@gmail.com.
This blog is intended to share my experiences during the final year of my education with anyone who stands to gain some knowledge, insight, or if nothing else, a few laughs, from the contents of its pages. I make no claim to be an expert on any issues I cover, other than my own personal experience.
