I am ecstatic to join the Empower Missouri team and make an impact on this organization and on our community. Having the opportunity to be the Communications Intern for the rest of the calendar year, I am looking forward to working under Amber Foster-Hobart, our Communications Director, and assisting with marketing and communications efforts such as social media management, website building, and design projects.
I am from the St. Louis area, but am currently a senior studying marketing and finance at
Missouri State University down in Springfield, MO. With my major in marketing management, I
have had a strong interest in the communications and marketing field. I have previous
experience with marketing and communications with jobs I have held at my university, working
on tasks such as donor relations, social media marketing, recruitment efforts, and various
writing projects. Starting as a Communications Intern last month at Empower Missouri has
allowed me to expand on those skills and also give back to and make an impact on the
community.
Both in high school and college, I have been able to volunteer with numerous non-profits
in Missouri. I am excited to now work with Empower Missouri and am especially anticipating
promoting their mission and values to the greater Missouri community. With the efforts that we
make in our organization, we can have a positive influence on the people who need it most.
