Meet the New Intern, Karly!

Hi! I am the brand new intern at Let It Shine Media and Great Shape! Inc. My name is Karly and I am currently a senior at Gonzaga University. I am hoping to graduate in May with a degree in Public Relations and a minor in Promotions. Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, I am a true California girl. Even though I have now lived in Spokane for three years, I still can’t get used to the cold!

I am so excited to be a part of Let It Shine Media and Great Shape! Inc. and to be able to acquire more knowledge about Jamaican culture. I have only been here for a few hours, but I already love the welcoming environment here and the values that Great Shape! Inc. embodies. I can’t wait to learn more about the individual projects and immerse myself in the culture!

Besides Great Shape! Inc. and Let It Shine Media, I also volunteer at Garry Middle School in Spokane. I absolutely love kids! I also studied abroad last summer in Zambia, Africa where I got to study chimpanzees for psychological research and teach English at the local school. This experience ignited my interest in foreign cultures and my love for helping others.

Thanks for taking the time to read my story! Feel free to email me with your blog ideas or experiences that you have had with Great Shape! Inc. You can reach me at karly@letitshinemedia.com
