Over the course of my second to last semester of college, I participated in a virtual internship with a Sydney-based company named SugarMammaTV, as well as their companion business titled SASS Financial.
My experiences working directly with Canna Campbell and her social media manager, Kristina, was enlightening, enriching, and truly a lot of fun. Never before had I been given the chance to perform writing duties for such a public audience, nor had I been given the experience of expanding my skillset with digital programs meant to diversify one's outreach through social media. While I was more than familiar with the use of Instagram and Facebook to perform community outreach and connect with potential readers / viewers, the concept of the creation of social media stories and videos was completely beyond my scope of understanding.
Through my internship, I gained valuable life experience in cultural diversity and awareness, while extending beyond my degree in English by learning Adobe Premiere and Canva editing software. These are the skills that shall set me and my work apart, and I cannot be more grateful for the endurance that I was able to realize I had in me, but also for the simple chance to demonstrate these skills in a professional working environment. COVID-19 has left many opportunities seemingly desolate, however, online there is an entire world awaiting us. It only needs us to firmly grasp it, to understand that we must go further, push ourselves and what we believe we can do.
The following are the articles that I contributed to SugarMammaTV, although I have omitted a number of Instagram stories, community outreach commentary, and video editing that was also a fundamental aspect of my development as part of my internship.
