Hi, my name is Marietta Esquerdo. This summer I’m an intern at a company called Communispace. Communispace creates communities to connect brands with their customers. So far I’ve been having a great time here, learning and exploring new things that have to do with design. As soon as I got to my desk/ work area (which I was super excited about!) My co-workers greeted me with a warm welcome. I felt comfortable from the start to ask anyone here for help, whether it had to do with projects at work or with my time to design project. I feel like I have more than one mentor here at Communispace apart from my mentor Christi Gorelli. Christi has helped me so much and has pushed me to dig deep and really think about my projects, especially for the Time to Design project. I have been assigned a couple projects so far and each was a new challenge, but a great benefit for me. One of the projects is for a first time event here at the office called “Take Your Kids To Work Day”, where I have to design the posters to hang up around the office. Another project that I’ve worked on is making a Master head for an online community of a real brand called Hasbro. I have also been working a lot with programs like Adobe Illustrator, Adobe InDesign and Adobe Photoshop. I’m glad that I get to work at Communispace for the summer. This opportunity has made me a more experienced designer. Thank you Youth Design!
Thanks to our Youth Design mentor Christi Gorelli!
