My direct supervisor was the Assistant Director of Brand Standards & Project Management in Food and Beverage. My role specifically required me to work on big and small scale projects simultaneously. I worked on brand books, illustrations, souvenir developments, and other graphics. The brand books were the biggest responsibility in terms of a project and I am really proud of how we managed to shape it into life.
Working with such a large group of people can be really chaotic, especially when collecting information or documents from all over. Being able to really reach out and get what you need from them as quickly as possible while also being considerate of their workload and time is really something else. I feel like I have been able to really learn so much about leadership and what teamwork really feels like throughout this internship. I have definitely gotten a lot better when it comes to separating my own style from what the job requires. It definitely gave me more clarification in terms of the different layers that exist in the form of roles in a small part of a larger organization which we are often not familiar with. After talking to so many people with such diverse roles I’ve been able to really filter out what I might be looking for in terms of future opportunity.
