Hey! I'm An Intern.

At the start of the summer, the amount of internship applications I had filled out was starting to be more than I could keep count. I began to get a little discouraged, because I wanted nothing more than to work as an intern this summer and get all the experience I can get! I started to settle for the fact that this summer would not be my summer as intern, until God showed up and showed out as usual. (Don't doubt God or His always perfect timing) I was blessed with an amazing opportunity to intern at Radio One Atlanta and I am absolutely loving it!

You know when you go into a certain situation expecting it to be one way, but you get something that totally exceeds your expectations? Yeah, that's what it was like my first DAY. Everyone was so welcoming and we literally jumped right into the swing of things. There was a lot going on so everything was very fast paced my first week. The biggest event of the year, Birthday Bash, was going on and the events surrounding it were just as big. Was I prepared for the lack of sleep I was going to get? Not at all. However, it was a HUGE learning experience and so hands-on.

The amount of people I've met at the office and the amount of knowledge I'm gaining is incredible and I'm hoping by the end of the internship I will have grown my brand, increased my passion for broadcast journalism and be able to take and apply everything that I've learned.

At the conclusion of my internship, I'll report back with absolutely everything I've learned, seen and read!

Here are some intern necessities, I have to have at ALL times...

Binder: holds schedule & other important papers, notebook: write down everything, cell phone, wallet, handy dandy intern book by Kevin Liles.
