Senior Internship
As a final requirement at the University of North Florida as a Commutations: Advertising student one must go through a formal internship or do a senior research project. I decided that it would be more beneficial for me to aim for an internship, which would also give me hands on experience in a communications role. I was hired by the Career Services, which is a department at UNF that works on career focused events, informing students of academic and business opportunities and career counseling. During, the duration of my internship I focused on advertising and promoting on social media. I also helped digitally inform students about a Career Fair being held during my internship and I helped manage the event with the help of my wonderful team. The main tasks I was given during the internship was to come up with new ideas and trends to grow our social media presence, design post and videos for our social media platforms and design flyers that displayed critical information or promoted upcoming events. My internship with Career Services was a wonderful opportunity to gain hands on knowledge with companies UNF partnered with, external designs to inform individuals at UNF such as students and staff about upcoming events, and adding social media presence. Overall, the internship was a purely positive experience that I am grateful I had the opportunity to experience.

Major Monday Design: Instagram Post
Every Monday UNF's Career Service post a design on their Instagram and Facebook page including information about a major offered at the university. The design also contains critical information about the major being spotlighted. These post are made to inform perspective students and students that are unsure of the academic path they would like to follow.

Career Fair Design: Instagram Post
The University of North Florida holds multiple career fairs on their campus throughout the year. Businesses that want to participate in the career fair are expected to reserve their spot and purchase a package if desired. The packages include a variety of services with one of them being spotlighted on Career Service's social media platforms. I designed this image for the Florida Department of Children and Families. This design helped inform students of the different businesses that would be appearing at an upcoming career fair.

This is an event flyer that I designed to inform students at the University of North Florida that there was an upcoming event.

Event Flyer/ Informative Instagram Post
I designed this image to become an event flyer and an informative Instagram post on UNF's Career Services social media page. FIS partnered with UNF to make a conference on cryptocurrency to help students understand the subject with a clearer understanding. The design gave students relevant graphics to appeal to the visual senses and had key text, which informed the students about the details of the event.
