Taylor Cunningham, of Arcadia, recently completed an internship with The Annex of Marion in Marion, Ohio.
During her internship, Cunningham used her communication skills to assist in planning for community events, manage social media platforms and work on website development. She also assisted with Ohio State Marion campus orientations and move-in.
“Our students use their internship experiences to hone their communications skills, network with potential employers, and develop confidence in their abilities,” said Dr. Annie Specht, program manager and associate professor for agricultural communication. “These internships are more than just line items on a resume – they are opportunities for students to prepare themselves for the next phase of their professional lives.”
Cunningham returned to Columbus in August, where she is completing a degree in agricultural communication at The Ohio State University.
The agricultural communication major at Ohio State prepares students to plan, develop, and implement a communication campaign, using visual media, writing and editing. Students study crisis communication, graphic design, marketing, and journalism so they can spread the word about agriculture.
