Marketing Intern

June - August 2018

Formally known as the Broadway Center for the Performing Arts

I was hired as a marketing intern by the Broadway Center for Performing Arts (BCPA) in the summer of 2018. This experience was integral to my exploration of professionalism and creativity in a workplace environment. During my time I was able to expand my marketing skills as I was asked to plan, manage, and write for the organization's Instagram and Facebook. I was able to learn how to navigate Agora Pulse, Hootsuite, and other social media management platforms.

I also became more familiar with Microsoft Excel as I made spreadsheets to manage social media as well as conduct data analysis for the many surveys that the BCPA distributed after their shows. In addition to my exploration of social media tools, I was able to see how the company ran their website and updated content.

The highlight of my time at the BCPA was the planning and participation in their annual event Brew Five Three, Tacoma's largest beer festival. I was able to promote the event, run social media during the event, and work the ticket booth. 

Interning at the BCPA was a fantastic opportunity for growth and experience that greatly impacted my longing to be in a productive, fast-paced, and creative space in the future.
