Introducing: Behn

Did you know Irvin Mayfield is partnering up with the JW Marriot Hotel to launch a new club? Neither did I. But my first day at Keating Magee involved a trip to The Royal Sonesta where we attended a press conference on the roof of the hotel. Irvin Mayfield explained that his club would feature local jazz musicians as well as up and coming artists. The conference concluded with a tour of the club where drinks and hors d'oerves (yes thats how you spell it) were served! 10a.m. is a little too early to have drinks for me, even in New Orleans, but I thought that was a cool first day.

Hi my name is Behn Lanaux. I recently graduated from Tulane University with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a minor in business. After graduation I was looking for an opportunity to break into the field of marketing. A meeting with Rob Anderson and Ann Wills at Keating Magee's office in New Orleans' own French Quarter led into a discussion of a summer internship.

With a great view of the Mississippi River and such an exciting atmosphere, I can't think of a better way to spend my mornings this summer. Keating Magee has afforded me the opportunity to intern at their downtown office. Sitting in on meetings is a huge privelage and a learning experience. Interning here allows me the opportunity to understand how one of the top marketing firms in New Orleans conducts day to day business.

There is no better education than hands on experience!
