A Day in the Life

Ah the BambooSK8 intern blog…I love Mondays!(Especially when my dinosaur of a computer decides to not work so I have to use Ryan’s back up baby computer. Just another day in the life). Ever since I started interning for BambooSK8, my Mondays have been quite interesting. We have a team of interns and 4 of us get the privilege of working together every Monday which is awesome. This is the first internship that I’ve had where there are actually multiple interns working together at the same time and it’s definitely a bonus. We all come in, coffees and red bulls in hand, and start the work day with plenty of stories from the weekend and laughing histerically at the most random things, but even when we get down to business we still have a great time in the office. It’s never boring, that’s for sure.

Here at BambooSK8, we work on promoting our amazing 100% bamboo skate decks and spreading the word on how these decks will one day change the entire skateboarding industry. I actually feel like I am a part of something that has so much potential for success and I love that the interns actually play an important role here at BambooSK8. Not only am I learning more about the skate industry and what it takes to start a company and build from the bottom up, I am also learning valuable skills in sales, marketing and PR which I will carry with me throughout my future career…I’m hoping BambooSK8 will help me jump start that step : )

Overall, I’m really enjoying working here at BambooSK8 and can’t wait to see what the future has in store for this company. And one day when bamboo takes over the skateboarding industry, I can proudly say that I was a part of it from the beginning which is coolest part. But now it’s time for me to get back to work and keep selling bamboo! P.S. If you like our site and like reading our blogs, you should check out our myspace page too, Kelly and I have been working hard to get it looking good : )

Until the next blog,
