About Me

Me Hello! My name is Megan Ho. I am born and raised from Portland, Oregon. I am currently duel enrolling at Oregon State University and Linn Benton Community College for my second year of college. I am enrolled in the principles of marketing class because I am a business analytics major and this class will help me understand how to market and consumer behavior, which is an important concept for my major. I am most interested in learning about personalized advertisements because it is something new in digital technology that not a lot of everyday users understand, including me. I would love to learn how it works and if there are companies listening in on consumers😳. Something that I am most passionate about outside of college is dance, snowboarding, and spending quality time with family and friends.  My dog, Jazzy My dog, Daisy
