This was a 2018 Summer internship. I worked with the marketing and communications department for Habitat for Humanity of the NC Sandhills. My main project was working on all of the marketing material for the Summer Youth Build. I have written a press release, lead team meetings, and contacted other organizations to recruit volunteers. I also added to my knowledge of Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop as well as learned how to effectively use Microsoft Publisher. This was a 2018 Summer internship.

I assisted a professor with researching the effects of using different levels of recycled fibers in polyester and cotton fabrics. I preformed textile testing including: Specimen preparation and Yarn Count, Fabric Count, Fabric Thickness, Abrasion Resistance, Piling, and Yarn Weight tests.

Oct 2014 - Jan 2015
As a sales associate at Apricot Lane, I preformed many tasks on the sales floor and behind the scenes. I would prepare merchandise before it went on the sales floor by unpacking, steaming, hanging, and labeling apparel. I also would assist in arranging the sales floor with products. I was in direct contact with customers and often provided clothing suggestions. As a sales associate at Apricot Lane, I preformed many tasks on the sales floor and behind the scenes.
