Bio
Lauren Zollars, M.Ed.
I truly enjoyed my internship at The Housing Partnership with Simone. I am a public relations major, and this was my first internship experience. Simone was helpful, kind, and provided valuable insight into the public relations field. She critiqued my work where needed but gave me the freedom to work on my own. This led to us being a successful team where we launched the organization’s first internal newsletter. Simone also made time to mentor me and pinpoint where my skills can be applied in the professional workforce. My experience with Simone at The Housing Partnership was delightful, I value our professional relationship to date, and she gave me the experience I need to succeed in the future. If you want to learn about public relations, I would consider her consult without reservation.

I really enjoyed my internship at INSP. I worked closely with Simone on various tasks and projects. My background and studies are in the HR field and I knew very little about marketing and PR, but Simone always explained things in a way that was easy for me understand. That led me to be as successful as I was while working under her. She made me feel confident in my accomplishments with the marketing team. As my time and my tasks grew with that team, Simone gave me the freedom to tackle each project on my own while still offering guidance and direction when needed. The wisdom and guidance she gave me throughout my time with her is valuable. I will use it not only in my career but in my life. Thank you Simone. I am grateful to have met you.

Simone is by far one of the most attentive, and professional employees with whom I ever had the pleasure of working. Her ability to manage projects, tasks and people unilaterally, sets her above most professionals. She is exceptionally creative, yet still is able to reduce the most complicated problem to very basic issues, and bring them to resolution. Simone would be a joy to have as part of any team; if given the chance, there is no doubt that I would hire her immediately.
