Alec Guy, Communication Studies
Internship: Marketing and Communications, Prevention Action Alliance
“I enjoy creating copy and content, getting it approved, and then seeing the engagement with my work — extremely exciting and empowering!”
The Columbus non-profit Prevention Action Alliance focuses on building healthy communities by preventing substance misuse, and for his summer 2021 internship, Alec Guy worked on social media and newsletter content creation and editing.
The experience has given him insight into how a professional organization works day-to-day: the fast pace, the deadlines and beyond. Courses like My Story on the Web, Foundations of COMM and visual design classes prepared him to succeed in this internship, and he’s enjoyed the experience.
“I enjoy creating copy and content, getting it approved, and then seeing the engagement with my work — extremely exciting and empowering!” Alec says. “I also love the constructive criticism that I have been receiving.”
