YES! You can be authentic without being unprofessional in online spaces!
Going to be the first to admit I have made mistakes as a dig. citizen. Apologize, learn from them, and grow. Share this with kids.

My personal Facebook account is more "personal" but I take care that it is never "unprofessional."
