Community Engagement Scholar for the Public Service Department for the City of Lansing
-
Sep 2019 - Jun 2022
Summary: The Center of Community Engaged Learning connects students to non-profits around the Lansing area. The students offer their services to their partner site while participating in student engagement projects. Some examples are Spartan Days of Service, MLK Remembrance, Student Voting Project, and various volunteer fairs. The Year of 202-2021: This school year, I am partnered with the City of Lansing, Public Service Department. With my partner, Tom Douglas, we are project managers of the Flood Prevention Task Force. This task force includes monthly and weekly small group meetings to discuss action items to educate the Lansing area about preventing flood damage and preparing for weather emergencies. Some of the conclusions we came to as a large group was rebranding the website, creating educational materials for people who don't have access to the internet and in different languages and reading levels, and creating seasonal prevention materials. The Year of 2019-2020: During my time as a Community Engagement Scholar, I was partnered with the YMCA in Downtown Lansing as their Marketing Intern focused on social media. I worked about 12 hours per week, and I met with the Executive Director daily to discuss social media ideas enhancements to the lobby marketing and update her on creative ideas. I created three posts per week that involved member engagement, company engagement, healthy tips, staff & member spotlights, and community service initiatives. Since I was an admin on social media, there were brand rules I had to adhere to. I attended a brand awareness meeting with the Marketing Branch Manager. This meeting solidified my excitement for the brand and its importance to maintaining. I made great connections at the Y, and I will keep them in my heart and cherish the experience forever. The program has gifted me some of my favorite college experiences, and I hope to be a returning scholar for the 2020-2021 school year.

Nov 2016 - Jan 2019
At Noodles & Company, I began as a cashier at the Front of House. Seven months into the job, my manager offered me a promotion to Journey Leader. The title entails that I train new hires and set an example for greeting guests and fulfilling transactions properly. After becoming more familiar at Noodles & Company, my general manager offered me another opportunity to become a shift manager. I agreed and trained vigorously for two weeks. The training entailed opening and closing shifts, asking questions, shadowing other managers, and executing manager shifts. As a shift manager, I provided a clean, safe environment for roughly 150 customers daily and seven employees per shift. I also implemented the Journey Leader training program and weekly one-on-ones to keep up with the status of my employees. Being a manager requires mastering all six positions in the restaurant to understand other employees’ roles. Besides the store, I communicated with guests daily to ensure proper etiquette of employees and reasonable procedures. I also provided accurate accounting using Microsoft Excel daily.

Jul 2018 - Aug 2018
Interfaith Community Partners is a non-profit organization that provides independence for older adults. When in need of a ride to a doctor's appointment or the grocery store, Interfaith pairs the adult with a volunteer driver to help them safely arrive at their destination. Since Interfaith is a small non-profit in my local area, they needed assistance to market their service to other people. Therefore, I served as a marketing intern for them in 2018. I volunteered for about 54 hours over the course of 5 weeks. I reviewed various marketing materials, gave suggestions, created testimonials of current customers, implemented an annual Facebook posting calendar, and revised their website, brochures, and social media accounts.
