About me

Hello! My name is Chrissa Diakanastasis and I am currently a 4th-year student majoring in ProCom and minoring in PR at Ryerson University. I plan on doing my PR Master’s this coming fall and then I hope to jump right into the business of Public Relations for charities and charity events. Throughout my years at Ryerson, I have learned how to efficiently communicate and the power communication can hold when conveying a message to the target audience.

The research topic that I have been exploring is whether or not online consumer behaviour drastically changed during the COVID-19 global pandemic. Primary data combined with secondary sources come together to provide an in-depth grounded theory. Overall, my findings concluded that a dramatic rise in shopping and a sudden change in consumer behaviour such as mob-mentality panic buying or trying to relieve stress with “retail therapy” is the result of craving security, unity and escapism during the COVID-19 pandemic
