During the Summer of 2023, I had the privilege of serving as the Marketing Intern for the Hattiesburg Convention Commission, where I immersed myself in a dynamic and hands-on experience in the world of marketing and events.

Hattiesburg Convention Commission

Through my work on the Hattiesburg Passport Program, I helped inspire Hattiesburg residents to embark on a passport-stamping adventure by exploring all three remarkable locations: the Hattiesburg Visitors Center, the Hattiesburg Zoo, and the African American Military History Museum. Obtain stamps from each site, and you could be the proud owner of a free t-shirt! The following photos were taken by me to go in our social media campaign:

  • This internship provided comprehensive exposure to various aspects of marketing within the context of event management and tourism.

  • Developed compelling and engaging content for digital platforms, including social media posts, blog articles, and promotional materials.

  • Assisted in crafting press releases and newsletters.

  • Managed and curated content for the organization's social media channels, resulting in increased engagement and follower growth.

  • Implemented social media campaigns to promote upcoming events and highlight the unique offerings of Hattiesburg as a destination.

During this internship, I had the opportunity to familiarize myself with curating video content. Check out this video here!
