The New York lifestyle fostered my love for action-packed events and the non-stop hustle. Every day of my internship was filled with new PR breakthroughs, up and coming trends, and assisting planning events for the newest product launch. By learning the behind-the-scene details and overall marketing strategies of our clients' brands, I was able to further understand what it takes for a product to not only launch in the market, but to thrive.

Living in New York City made me extremely independent - which led me to succeed as an intern in the professional world. Each year, Bollare choses an intern that they notice has shown a great work ethic and leadership (by reaching out with questions, showing interest in what I was doing wrong/could do better, making sure my work was to the best it could be, asking to do more work, offering to work extra days, etc) and “awards” them with special tasks to complete in order to challenge them as an individual in the industry. This showed me that positive results come with hard work and dedication, and gave me a confidence boost in the professional world!
