About Me
Hi! My name is Charlotte Bostick, and I am a Public Health major, minoring in Chemistry and Sociology at the University of South Carolina. I'll be graduating in Spring 2025, and am pursing Graduation with Leadership Distinction in Community Service. After graduation, I will be staying in Columbia for another 16 months as I pursue my Master of Human Resources at the Darla Moore School of Business. After that, I plan to work in corporate HR.

professor brought in student speakers from the MHR program. It was then when I realized that all of the skills and lessons learned from my on and off-campus involvements nicely fit into the box of human resources. I felt an enormous sense of relief once I was accepted into the MHR program, as I realized that all the effort I had put into my undergraduate career had finally paid off.

My key insights, listed below, display the experiences and revelations I've had over the course of my undergraduate career that have shaped me into the woman I am today:​ ​​​
Entering into college as a nervous 18 year-old, I never would've thought that I would be where I am today. I have goals for my future, and experiences behind me to support whatever decisions I make. The leadership tab of this e-portfolio describes ways in which I will use my community service experience to advocate for change in my future career.
