Ethan Greavu

My name is Ethan and I am a student hoping to become a writer involved in Communications. I am a student at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication and am currently working on my Bachelor of Arts in Journalism.

I have always enjoyed writing and involving myself in the news to help get stories across that I feel need to be told.

Before obtaining my first job in a team-based communications role, I wanted to develop my voice and tone in writing so I started a blog and have used that outlet to do so.

By pushing myself to publish my own work, I have found encouragement, positive criticisms and have felt many accomplishments along the way. I have become passionate about understanding what people want to read and how search engine optimization can be an immensely useful tool.

Some of what I have written, and through the use of SEO, has gotten my work in front of millions with one of my articles being tweeted by Medium's official twitter. Other articles have become Google Snippets and are considered pinned answers by Google. With thousands of views each week, and some articles having been viewed over 30 thousand times, I have considered my self taught experience as my most valuable experience.

I have a passion for reaching an audience. My role in a communications team practicing external outreach and my school's repeated opportunities to be a voice to the public has helped me to learn what will and will not work. I am fortunate to know what I enjoy early in life and I will always take advantage of technology and networking today to continue growing my skills.
