UGA’s Development and Alumni Relations focuses on working with UGA students, faculty and alumni to turn their love for the university into meaningful impact. I am currently working as a communications intern for this team, focusing on drafting different types of written products, including newsletters, impact stories, blog posts and social media content to align with UGA’s voice and branding standards. I also conduct background research and interview individuals to highlight student scholarship recipients and alumni achievements for three different websites. Below is the published content that I have created throughout my time in this role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UGA Alumni Chapter Spotlight<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These two pieces focused on highlighting two UGA alumni chapters: London and Atlanta. Putting these stories together involved reaching out to the chapter leaders and board members to interview them about their experience and the chapter as a whole. I then had to find an angle for each chapter and determine the best way to show why they are an integral part of the UGA alumni experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This series was created to feature different recipes from UGA alumni as part of the 2025 college football season. These pieces were more casual content, focused on being a simple read for all audiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
