UPIC Intern, Fall 2016
Supervisor and Mentor: Nathan Smith
Campus Banner & Design
The Experience: This fall semester, I worked as a Graphic Design and Productions intern at
Campus Banner & Design. I gained a large amount of knowledge in how to conduct myself in a
business environment as well as how to communicate between team members and staff. This
being my third internship at this company and second UPIC internship, I have noticed a
continual increase in amount of responsibility and work I have been awarded on a day-to-day
basis. I hope to complete a fourth semester here in the spring and continue to produce higher
quality work as well as lead the new interns.
Skills Gained: I have increased my knowledge in the Adobe Creative Suite software in producing
designs and layouts since the beginning of this fall semester. Everyone is very open to helping
and teaching, so I continue to soak up new techniques, which are very beneficial to my skillsets
in the long run. I have improved in communication and collaboration as I work with more
employees, each with different levels of skills and experience. I have also noticed an increase in
self-awareness and knowing where my limits are in working and juggling schoolwork. While
working with various customers and employees, I have realized a certain set of leadership skills
that I had yet to utilize. This internship has been beneficial in helping me grow in many ways.
Mentor Feedback: My mentor and all other managers were very helpful and willing to listen
when I had a problem. When I messed up (which did happen a few times), they were there to
offer support and teach me the correct way to produce the job. I am very happy with our
interactions this semester.
The Next Step: Upon graduation in May 2017, I will attempt to obtain a full-time position in the
graphic communications workforce. This internship has increased my comfort level in learning
various skills in this field and I hope to utilize these skills after my commencement. I hope to
graduate with honors and an even larger list of experience to pursue a full-time career.
