The Internship That Never Sleeps

It is hard to believe that summer is almost over and I will be returning to Kent State to finish up my undergrad! My time at Rebecca Adele PR & Events has gone by so fast and I truly am going to miss working here every week! Becki has been such a positive role model and I am eager to apply everything I learned this summer to the real working world. Rebecca Adele PR & Events has opened a door of ideas for me and I have Becki to thank for that!

Coming into this internship I did not know what to expect at all! I’ve had previous internships before but I knew this internship would be much different than the rest! The excitement about working at Rebecca Adele is the fast pace work environment. When you came to work, you had no choice but to work! Becki is a one-woman show and everything we do goes directly to her. It’s amazing to see how well she multi-tasks throughout the day and then still manages to stay on top of the work she gives interns. In the office, we are all treated equal and we all help each other out when needed! Working in such an intimate environment with a few people helped all of us get the one-on-one attention we needed to grow.

It’s exciting to see how much more confident I am as a writer and how I have progressed over the past few months. In the office, we are the writers of blogs, press releases, social media plans and much more. I’ve learned more about my writing skills during this internship than I have the past few years of college. This internship has challenged me to go outside of my comfort zone and write about things I would never choose to write about. It’s also been an accomplishment to see public feedback on my own words.

At the beginning of the summer, I was still asking myself what I wanted to be when I grew up. Working with Rebecca Adele PR & Events I was able to get a little taste of everything. Working the Avant-Garde Art & Craft Shows, to sitting in on client meetings, to even writing social media plans! I can say I have a better outlook on what I want my future to look like now. I know that event planning is the direction I want my career to go after this summer. The excitement of putting together an event and being able to see the outcome is a great feeling! Having people satisfied with an event you put on is an accomplishment in itself. I was able to see how PR and social media play a huge part in the success of an event and how every aspect is important. I have a lot of hard work until I reach the end result, but I am excited for the ride!

Working with Becki has given a new meaning to the word “work ethic.” Becki is awesome at what she does and it’s because she works hard at it! It’s inspiring to see someone so young already accomplish so much. I am so thankful I was able to be a part of Rebecca Adele PR & Events this summer because it has been nothing less than a positive experience. Even though I have two more semesters of college, I will take what I learned this summer and apply it in years to come. Thanks for a great summer Becki and I can’t wait to see where your business takes you!
