Erik who?
Hi. Thanks for checking out my random thoughts on digital media in higher education.
My name is Erik Hagen, and I am currently the Webmaster at California Lutheran University in beautiful Thousand Oaks, CA. I’ve been working in higher ed for 5 years, and was a student at Cal Lutheran before that. In fact, I’m pursuing an MBA degree here right now (I live and breathe this place sometimes).
My interests cover the gamut in digital media, from Web design and development, audio and video production, photography, social networking/media, SEO, etc. etc. etc. hence the title of this blog. More recently I’ve taken a strong interest in learning how to step back and see how all these puzzle pieces fit together in a truly integrated campaign to enhance the brand, reputation and community of the institution.
When not staring at a computer screen for ridiculous amounts of time, you’ll find me attempting to complete an instrumental rock album, watching insane amounts of The West Wing, tracking down all the Sam Adams styles, or sneaking down to Disneyland.
I hope my thoughts and questions help further the conversation among higher ed professionals in our marketing endeavors.
Cheers,
Erik
