Super Intern
Last week was a very fast paced week, I learned so much in the first five days.I had no idea what to expect, all my other internships have been either in a retail setting or for one specific project. My mind was racing through all of the possible duties that I may be handed. I never thought in a million years that I would actually be helping run the company. I have done everything from my very first photo shoot to setting up meetings. I feel that my boss gives me the freedom that I need to learn but enough structure so that I won't be completely lost.And whats more is that he treats me like an equal, I have not once been asked to run a personal errand for him. I have heard all the stories about how interns are usually nothing more that just errand runners, who typically don't learn anything. This isn't the case with this job, I am learning more and more each day, and am often questioned if there is anything else that I want or need to learn. Overall these first two weeks have been great. I am so glad that I finally stepped out of my comfort zone and chose a company completely different from what I have been used to. This opportunity has been so much more than just a resume booster. As always i will continue to update you and want to hear how you summer internships are going.

First Day as an Intern
Today was a very special day, it was my very first day at Kirby Allison's Hanger Project! Even though it was my first day there was much preparation to get prepared for this week's events! I loved seeing our office space, it has lots of potential; tomorrow we begin to set up and I filled with so many ideas. We share an office with a chic handbag designer, who also has an intern that seems very friendly. I was not sure what to expect from interning with a smaller company, but I think that it will offer me a chance to learn new things and explore the world of business much more than I thought. Since it is my first day I won't go too in depth, but as time goes on I will post more. As always continue to comment and share with me your internship experience.
