Summer Internship 2020

Intern: Paulina Colwell 

Paulina Colwell is a journalism major with a double minor in political science and women studies with an International Media Certificate.  She recently graduated this summer from the University of Colorado, Boulder after receiving her last 3 credits through the Girl Gone Global Internship. Her dream job is to work with an accredited travel PR company, and with the help of Alyssa, she has gained the skills and contacts to make her dream a reality. While working with Girl Gone Global she has gained many professional skills such as email campaign marketing, editing and copywriting, pitching to outlets, managing social media campaigns, and graphic design.

Testimonial: “This internship really gave me insight into what I am passionate about, and now I have the skills to further both my writing and media career! While I am a journalism major and interested in getting published in lifestyle publications, this internship required a lot of PR skills and helped me realize I want to explore that path as well. The best part about this internship was gaining insider knowledge and connections in the media world. Alyssa has been amazing to work with and is an incredibly successful woman that I look up to, I am incredibly lucky to have worked under her mentorship, learning not only career skills but life skills that have made me realized my potential and inspired me to work harder than ever before. This has been the perfect communications internship to help me launch my career and has prepared me for a future that is hopefully as successful and exciting as Alyssa’s!”
