The Experiences of Temple Advertising Students
Wrapping up my final few weeks at Propulsion Media Labs was a bit bittersweet. Along my journey through the semester at Propulsion I was able to make some great contacts with people in the advertising world, as well networking with students from other schools I worked along side of such…
Last week, was rather slow at work, but I worked on one of my favorite projects thus far. I’m a pretty big fan of Christmas time. I love sitting around and watching Christmas specials. Its one of the best parts of the holiday for me. I’m all about the Grinch.…
This past week my internship at AL DIA came to an end after a three month long adventure into the real world. AL DIA was my first internship I have ever taken and it was definitely a great fit for my first experience. In my last post, I mentioned the 20th Anniversary Gala…
This semester I have been interning at Philadelphia Style Magazine. I have absolutely enjoyed my time there. When I began at Temple as an advertising major I knew I wanted to be in the art direction track for many reasons. The reason that I sought out an internship at a…
This year Christmas Village, which has been a part of Philadelphia Christmas for years, has been moved from City Hall to across the street to Love Park, where I am currently completing my internship for my advertising major. This has been a great opportunity, and very busy time for me.…
For the Past few months I, along with a group of Temple Students, have been teaching an advertising workshop in Kensington KAPA High School.

Over the past three months I was lucky enough to hold a position interning at The National Museum of American Jewish History (Known as NMAJH to the workers there). Over my time there I learned that although I am a young college student, I should not be too scared about…
Rewind back to the month of May, when I was applying for internships. At that time, I pictured myself dashing around Philadelphia in a blazer and heels, running errands for my boss–four coffees in a Starbucks caddy along for the ride. Needless to say, I had many misconceptions about what…
September 25, 2012… Our Ad Club Assembly Today was the day… the first day I would introduce myself, the first day I would interact with the students, and most importantly, the first day the students would hopefully open their eyes to the world of advertising. It was 9:00am, and a…
It’s about to be three weeks from the day of the competition and the creation of the viral/commercial/YouTube video is nowhere to be completed. But unlike us the students at Kensington High School are smiling and enjoying the time with us and their classmates. The students seemed to be trying…
