Work Experience

Vertosoft - Field Marketing Intern

During my 12-week Field Marketing Internship in Summer 2025 (Hybrid), I gained hands-on experience attending conferences, creating email campaigns, planning and executing events, and contributing to podcasting efforts. I also completed HubSpot certifications and helped manage HubSpot CRM, strengthening my skills in marketing automation and customer relationship management. I thrived in the “work hard, play hard” culture, while building meaningful connections that supported both my learning and professional growth.

StarrHill Brew Pub - Hostess

As a Hostess, I developed strong communication and active listening skills by welcoming guests, managing reservations, and ensuring a seamless dining experience. This role taught me how to truly listen to customers’ needs and respond with care, helping me anticipate what they are looking for and provide a warm, personalized experience.

Vienna Inn - Server

As a Server at a local dive bar known for its chili dogs, I learned the importance of building relationships and connecting with people in a fast-paced, community-driven environment. This was my first job after high school, and I continue to return for shifts because of the welcoming atmosphere and the loyal families I’ve built bonds with over the years. It was here that I discovered my love for communication and relationship-building, skills that continue to shape how I connect with others personally and professionally.

How My Experiences Sparked My Passion for Marketing

Working as a server and hostess gave me more than just customer service skills, it gave me a love for people. From chatting with regulars at a local dive bar to making guests feel welcome, I found joy in listening, connecting, and creating experiences that mattered. That spark carried into my Field Marketing Internship where I explored conferences, events, email campaigns, podcasting, and HubSpot certifications. These experiences showed me that marketing is about what I have loved from the very beginning: building connections, telling stories, and making an impact.
