How was this experience affected or changed your career/college plans?
Although this experience has not directly changed my college and career plans, it has certainly had an indirect impact on them.
First, it was very beneficial for my college applications to be able to list that I took part in an internship during my high school years. It was even better to list that I had two unique internships! I mentioned this in my Wake Forest interview and they seemed very impressed – it definitely made me stand out.
Second, my internships have reaffirmed my intentions to pursue entrepreneurship in the digital media space. I wanted to work with large teams on marketing projects, working to achieve shared goals. I hope that photography and video production will also be a part of what I do.
Finally, this path has definitely prepared me for college. I will likely be going to NC State in the Pool College of Management, and while there I intend to complete several additional internships. My experiences in high school at Crossroads Fellows, barnabas Multimedia, and Source7 Marketing will certainly aid in my internship opportunities in college.
Until next time
