Terrence Freeman

Humber College, Bachelor of Public Relations, fourth-year

Hello!

My name is Terrence Freeman – I am currently a fourth-year student studying towards my bachelor of public relations degree at Humber College. I moved to Toronto about six years ago to pursue post-secondary education in a city full of opportunities. I am looking forward to the new experiences my role as VP, external will bring.

Where are you from?

Hamilton, Ontario

Do you have any other post-secondary education?

I studied sociology for one year at Ryerson University.

What are you most excited for this year?

This year, I am most excited about our fall Passport to PR event! Having participated in last year’s Passport to PR event, I am excited to help plan an event that is able to provide so much insight for students.

What event did you enjoy the most last year?

Last year I most enjoyed the Passport to PR event. I had the opportunity to tour and learn about PR at Sears Canada and the Eaton Chelsea. The PR teams at both organizations provided lots of great insight.

Have you interned anywhere?

In the beginning of my PR program I interned at a boutique lifestyle-focused PR agency. The summer after my second year I worked at a lifestyle agency called Rock-It Promotions, supporting the agency’s annual Tastemakers gifting lounge at TIFF. Finally, this past summer after my third-year of school, I completed an internship at Metro (the grocery chain).

What is your dream job?

My dream job would be communications director of an international corporate consumer packaged goods company like Procter and Gamble or PepsiCo.

What do you do outside of school?

Outside of school, I work part time at a restaurant and enjoy spending time with friends while catching up with them over dinner.

Tell us something unexpected about yourself:

I’m a twin!
