From 2024–2025, I completed two internships for the

Department of Communication

at Christopher Newport University.

I completed a Social Media Internship

under Dr. Raffi Sarkissian and an

Alumni Marketing Internship under Dr. Alice Veksler.

ALUMNI VISIT

Colby Cook and I conducted an

Independent Study on Marketing and

Alumni Engagement under Dr. Veksler,

where we organized alumni speaker events,

including one with Rico Francis, to inspire stud

ents and highlight career paths in communication.

We also developed a fundraiser for

the department by researching student-friendly

ticket pricing to support scholarships.

As part of the project, I also led a

“day in the life” Instagram story takeover

on the CNU Communication account

to further engage students and

showcase the experience.

  • We advertised with physical flyers throughout campus.

  • During the day of Rico's visit, I posted a "Day in the Life" on the @cnucomm Instgram to highlight the event.
