Telly will be graduating in spring of 2024 and will be receiving his Bachelor's degree in Marketing. Read the information below to find out a little more about Telly:

I am perusing a degree in marketing to become a digital marketing specialist or a digital marketing manager. In free time I like to spend time with my fiancée and our baby boy.
