The Internship I Never Expected
My name is Kelsey Gallagher and I am currently interning at Group Two Advertising. They are a company that specializes in advertising and marketing for home-builders. I work with the Digital strategist as a digital marketing intern. Through my experience so far with the company, I was welcomed in as an adult who was ready to learn everything that I could about digital marketing and reporting. To be honest, going into the process I was not very interested in digital marketing, considering that I am originally a Media Planning advertising major. That being said, the information that I have learned…

Not only was I able to gain valuable experience from the four account executives at the agency who acted as mentors to me, but I was also able to work within the other departments. This was something that I am very appreciative of because I…
