Destiny Self

I got my start in student housing marketing as a Social Media Intern for ApartmentsForLegends at The University of Alabama, where I began creating TikTok tours of apartments for students. What started as simple apartment videos quickly grew into something much bigger than I could have imagined—I began experimenting with fun and engaging content like student interviews on the Quad, local business collaborations, and creative short-form videos that pushed the limits of my role.

After graduating from The University of Alabama in 2024, my passion for content creation and marketing led me to join the team full-time as a Market Director, moving to Tallahassee, FL to focus on building the RentTally student housing market. In this role, I help connect apartments with students at Florida State University (FSU), Florida A&M University (FAMU), and Tallahassee Community College (TCC) through authentic, creative social media content and community partnerships.

My love for content creation goes back to childhood—I’ve always been the friend with a camera or polaroid in hand, capturing every moment. In college, my role as Vice President of my sorority, Delta Gamma, gave me a deeper passion for marketing and social media strategy, which continues to inspire the work I do today.

In my free time, I love working out and experimenting with high-protein recipes that keep me energized and sometimes even earn a spot in my weekly routine—but I always make room for sweet treats on the weekends. I’ve also started a fun TikTok series where I’m exploring all the coffee shops in Tallahassee to find the best one (even though I’m not a coffee fan, so it’s turned into more of a matcha and chai adventure).

I’m excited to continue exploring Tallahassee, making new friends, and helping students find housing that fits their lifestyle while connecting apartments with the next generation of renters.
