Introducing: Erin

Hey there!
My name is Erin. The start of the summer marked a full year of my interning with Keating Magee. Though my roots are in New Jersey, I have traded in my Jersey for a different kind of "New"...New Orleans. This year I will be a senior at Tulane University and in the following year I will be finishing my double major in Marketing and Legal Studies in Business.

I have friends interning for a variety of companies in all sorts of fields, yet I am the only one experiencing an internship in New Orleans; all I can say is that my experiences have been far more colorful and exciting. Even FILING in New Orleans has a different feel -- okay that's a stretch. Filing sucks anywhere you go.

But through Keating Magee, I have been able to gain all types of hands-on experience. Whether it's creating our own marketing plan for the House of Blues or running around the city conducting interviews, interning in New Orleans- especially in the French Quarter- is a one-of-a-kind experience.

I never realized how important Facebook, Twitter and blogs were as communication tools, but now I do. That's when I decided it would be valuable to share our experiences with the rest of the world. Give everyone a taste of what it's really like to be a marketing intern in this unique city.
