A Little Bit About Me

My name is Scout Jacobs, and I am a determined and goal-oriented individual just beginning my career journey. As a student at Loyola Marymount University, I am currently studying English and Journalism. Ever since I was a child, I have had an interest in both consuming and creating imaginative stories. I have a passion for creative storytelling, collaboration, and showcasing an organizations’ mission in unique ways.

As an Editorial Intern at DeVorss & Co, a publishing house based in LA, I have exercised my passion for design and promoting something I continue to love: books. Through shadowing the Development Editor, I learned the ins and outs of the publishing industry and discovered a newfound interest in book design and assisting authors in achieving their literary goals.

In addition to DeVorss & Co, I have gained valuable experience within the journalism industry through both student-led publications and freelance experience. My journalism experience jumpstarted my interest in digital media, motivating me to gain experience through internships and extracurricular opportunities. As a PR & Marketing Intern for Swell Education, I increase brand visibility and social engagement through creating social media posts, analyzing social media metrics to inform creative decisions.

With these and many more experiences, I hope to continue to express my passion for creativity and effective communication. I am always looking to connect and find new opportunities!
