The first general objective for any intern is to learn the culture, mission and branding of the host site, while doing so, conduct ourselves professionally at all times.

​

My second objective was to get involved with an aspect of Visual Communication within the Swedemom organization. For me, this involved gathering information through email exchanges and communicating with individuals regarding the status and viability of the MacHub website and relaying all info back to Cami in a timely manner.  

​

My next objective was to learn the Swedemom "Wheel of Production" including:

Intake, Imaging, Description, Final Production, Storage, Purchase, Retrieval, Mailing

​

The final objective was to focus on a project with measurable results that related to area of personal and professional development.

​

Cami and I decided that I could make an impact on the donation room where material from multiple organizations is dropped, sorted and stored before production. I saw an opportunity to change the layout of the room to present donors with an organized and easily identifiable space for their donations. I also collaborated with my trainer and production specialist Savanah on the final layout of the room and on designs for signage to hang above each designated donor space. (results below)
