An Unlikely Path to the Perfect Internship
Had you told me three years ago that I’d be spending the summer before my senior year in college interning at a marketing and PR firm in Greensboro, I would’ve given you a bewildered look akin to the face the office dogs give me when I don’t share my lunch. I really can’t remember a time in my life when I wasn’t dead set on becoming a veterinarian – except when I dressed up as a waitress that one Career Day in first grade. I was that kid enchanted by the childhood dream. Then freshman year hit: multiple choice science exams and college “weed out” classes. Spraying me with Roundup couldn’t have gotten rid of me faster! Consequently, over the last three years at UNC-Chapel Hill, I’ve spent time searching for that next passion and discovered my love for marketing (and its lack of tiny bubble-riddle exams) along the way.
