How did you hear about your internship?
I found the internship opportunity on Handshake.
What has been the most valuable (or favorite) part of the experience?
My favorite part of the experience has been learning more about how to build relationships with local business sectors through communication. I think that this internship has shown me how valuable relationships are in a community. There are so many ways to make a difference by providing information, encouragement, and resources to others. The value of such interactions promotes communication and marketing, and I am glad to be a part of that.
How will this help you in the future?
My role as a Communications/Marketing Intern with the Development Authority of Lumpkin County will help me prepare for writing for publications, press releases, and social media. I will also be able to edit photos and videos for commercial use as I continue to learn and work on marketing materials.
