Google: Caitlyn Shuy

When I google my name 163 topics show up. The 1^st sixteen are all about me and related to me. I do not have any googlegangers. My name does google well. I have a very unique last name and it is not common. I have never actually met someone with the same last name as I that is not related to me. I know it is sometimes common Asian name though. I believe those that do share my last name pronounce it very differently. My last name, Shuy, is pronounced like the word buy; you don’t pronounce the ‘u’ so it comes out as the adjective shy. I’ve found out this is the best way to describe it to other people. I leave the impression that I am active and involved in several different things. When googling my name you find out that I have done Relay for Life, Belong to WFSC, RSA, and the CR’s. You also can see some of my figure skating accomplishments. One thing that is interesting that comes up is a family history I am included in. My grandfather who is a linguist decided in his free time to trace most of the family history and have it online for anyone to find. It is interesting because anyone can look at it and know who my parents or siblings are. I however have always liked it because of all the family history projects I had to do growing up; I had a resource at the tips of my fingers. I think my digital impression is a positive one. I prefer to have my own digital profile. If someone is looking to hire me they can see that I have been active in my community and very willing to give back. Seeing that I would like to work with people this is important for possible employers to see in the future.
