Carrie Hall- Intern for Trifecta Team PR

Carrie Hall is currently interning for Trifecta Team PR!

"As an intern, I gather up a database that we will be using to inform the public about the events surrounding the college football championship game and the game itself that will be at Raymond James stadium here in Tampa, Florida. I'll work this internship up until the championship game in January so there's more little tasks involved like contacting news and radio stations and getting air time for advertisements and interviews. I also get the opportunity in December to work at the St. Petersburg bowl game that's played in Tropicana field with Trifecta team, and it'll be my second year doing that job for them!

"I eventually want to work in operations for a sports company. My ultimate goal is to do event operations for ESPN! I love my internship now because I get to be very involved with the planning and work that goes into the PR surrounding the college football championship game."

Alë Gonzales- Intern at TIF

Alë Gonzales is currently interning at The Immokalee Foundation (TIF), a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide better educational opportunities for the children of Immokalee, Florida. 

"The organization has three sectors; their readers program which is centered around elementary school aged children, their Take Stock in Children sector which focuses on middle/high school success, and their post-secondary program which guides students through college or a vocational pathway. I'll be working with the post-secondary sector, organizing collegiate information so that students have all the information necessary in order to decide what they would like to do after high school.

"TIF is also heavily involved in the lives of alumni and ensuring alumni success so  I will also be reaching out to alumni concerning their current status, and at times asking for testimonies so that current students are able to visualize and realize their goals. This is an amazing opportunity for me as I am a double major in International Affairs and Business Management and this will serve as a learning experience about careers in development and relief and what it will be like as I further my education."
