posted by Public Relations

For our second edition of get::ting answers, Public Relations Intern Andrea interviews our Design Intern, Laura.

Andrea: As the graphic design intern, what do you do on a daily basis?
Laura: There really is no typical day, every day is different. Usually, my day consists of a mix between client work and internal work, which includes a variety of print and web design.

A: What do you like best about interning at thunder::tech?
L: My favorite thing about thunder::tech is definitely the people who work here. I enjoy the open atmosphere and the fact that it isn’t unusual to see someone ride past you on a skateboard or scooter. Having cool clients and projects to work on is a definite plus too.

A:
When you were young you thought you’d grow up to be…
L: Probably a teacher or a rockstar, maybe both, like Jem from Jem and the Holograms.

A: What’s currently playing on your iPod?
L: Kanye West and Duffy.

A: What’s on your perfect ice cream sundae?
L: Twist soft serve with M&M’s.

Interns Laura and Andrea take in the view from thunder::tech's rooftop deck.
