Bold Beginners Internship Program
What an experience!
From the very moment I received the offer, a rush of excitement coursed through me, anticipating the experiences this opportunity held. Over the course of the program, I had the privilege not only to engage in collaborative projects with product design professionals within the agency but also to successfully orchestrate a campaign pitch project alongside my fellow intern teammates.
Throughout this period, I had the privilege of harnessing and putting into action the diverse skills I've gained over the years. Furthermore, I delved deeply into a multitude of disciplines, including but not limited to design thinking and the art of effective teamwork.

Agency & Department
For agency-related work, I was assigned to the product design department, where I worked closely with a team consisting of one lead, a senior, and a junior product designer.
I began my internship by working on a project with my mentor, who was the team's lead designer, to create the agency's design system, which comprised typography, buttons, a navigation bar, cards, accordions, and an ISI panel.
As the internship progressed, I assisted in the design of branded pharmaceutical websites and convention panels while collaborating with the team's designers.
Pitch Project
I was part of a team of 12 interns that consisted of Account Manager, New Business, Project Managers, Copy Writer, Art director, and XR interns. Together, we were tasked to pitch a campaign to our designated clients based on the RFP that we were provided at the beginning of the internship.
During this assignment, I worked as a product designer to create creative components for the campaign while collaborating with other creative interns.
Please note that I am unable to discuss the project's specifics.
