Hi, my name is Beth Bruch and I’m a Digital Media Innovation student at Texas State!
I’m the Social Media Director for my school’s chapter of the American Advertising Federation (AAF). I enjoy learning new things and traveling to different states and national parks. I love traveling, visiting national parks and spending time outdoors.

Texas State Affirmations
What started off as a fun inside joke between me and my friends soon became a campus sensation. @txstateffirmations is a Texas State-themed Instagram account meant to create a lighthearted atmosphere for students and staff.
