Captain’s Log…

Holler!

My name is Monique but most people call me Mo and I’m a new intern at BambooSK8.  I started just a few days ago and at this point, I’m still figuring out where the stapler lives and what my future goals are with BambooSK8.  I figure my best bet is to give you a little bit of information about myself.

I graduated in May 2008 from Trinity College in Hartford, CT where I double majored in Art History and Hispanic Studies.  Between graduating and now I’ve been a busy bee. After working at the New Children’s Museum in San Diego all summer, I embarked on some travel escapades from September until the end of January. First, I went on a cross country road trip for a month through the south of the US. Then I flew to Ireland, Chile, Argentina and Peru.  I read about the internship on Malakye.com while in Chile and decided not to apply right away because I still hadn’t finalized the date of my return to San Diego.  So 2 months later, when I was back in San Diego, I applied for the internship and here I am!

Three things I’m currently amped on:

1. Working on our presence on the Loop’D network. I’m particularly interested in Youth Marketing so this seems like a very direct way of reaching that demographic. 

2. Working with Ron on projects involving skateboarding programs and fundraisers for the Hollenbeck Youth Center in East L.A

3. The Civil War reenactment happening in Vista this weekend.  Yaaa get excited! http://www.goldcoastfestivals.com/civilwar/civilwarpg.htm

 

Toodles,

Mo
