Think of your personal brand as the unique combination of your skills, experiences, and personality — the way you want others to perceive you.
It’s what makes you memorable when someone sees your LinkedIn, hears you speak in class, or reviews your application.
You already have a brand — whether you’ve defined it or not.
The key is to make it intentional.
Start by asking yourself:

What shows up? Is it aligned with how you want to be seen?
Instead of just a job title, write something that reflects your mission or value.
Use them to guide your communication, tone, and choices — online and offline.
Can you explain who you are and what you bring in one clear sentence? Use it in your LinkedIn, emails, or when networking.
Their answers might surprise you — and help you sharpen your message.
Does your photo, CV, and LinkedIn banner reflect who you are?
