Hey, There!
I’m Elaine.
I am a passionate writer who enjoys learning about different cultures, languages, and perspectives. My goal is to advocate on how to embrace interculturality & cross-cultural communication. I believe that meaningful relationships, productive cross-global collaboration & genuine connections are possible in today’s business world. Embracing dialogue and respect starts with developing a healthy sense of self. The more we embrace our authentic selves, the more receptive we become to diversity.
I’m a firm believer that the future is intercultural. Learning to appreciate and respect diversity, in all its forms, is key in creating a harmonious and sustainable future for all.
I hope to inspire you by sharing content that spikes up the necessary questions and conversations that help you come closer to that.
A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT ME
I was born and raised in a Caribbean tropical island called Puerto Rico. I am currently based in Austin, TX working as a full-time digital ads content specialist and freelance copywriter. In my free time I like reading, writing, listening to podcasts, watching documentaries, practicing yoga, and spending time with loved ones. I have a bachelor’s degree in interdisciplinary studies with a focus on human biology, social psychology, and history from the University of Central Florida. That’s just a fancy way of saying I love learning about the human mind and behavior and comparing them with different groups across different time periods.
My perspective is international, informed by a diverse background – partly rooted in U.S. culture but not U.S. centric, and not limited to a one-dimensional understanding of American culture. I’ve had the opportunity to visit countries outside of the United States such as Spain, Italy, France, and Mexico. The next three countries I’d like to visit soon are Egypt, Thailand, and Greece. Having the opportunity to visit these places and learn about their history, traditions, gastronomy, as well as build cross-cultural friendships, brought me closer to myself and enriched my perspective of the world.
I hope to inspire you by creating content that spikes up the necessary questions and conversations that challenge your narrative, bring you closer to yourself, and expose you to the beauty of cultural differences.
Follow me on my journey to #MakeHumanityGreatAgain and together move towards a more global-thinking society.
I look forward to connecting with you.
With Love,
Elaine Rosa
