Let’s Exchange Notes Podcast creator and host, Zalika Adams, is a dreamer, a thinker and always asking “why”. She has always stated that asking “why” leads to understanding. Zalika graduated from Cleveland State University, in 2009, with a Bachelor of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences degree. With a double major in Communication Studies and Journalism and Promotional Communication. She can remember communication was important and apparent in her life from an early age. Her mother often challenged her to “look it up in the dictionary” when she didn’t know the spelling of a word. Not too long after college she went into the field of tax, however, she always looked for a challenge within this line of work: from giving presentations to colleagues or coaching the new hires of the team.  This journalistic mindset was forever running in the background of her psyche.
