The internship process was a bit of struggle because selecting an internship to align with my schedule was a process I had to thoroughly think about. The Internship I selected was perfect not only because it aligned with my schedule but it gave me an opportunity to start my career path towards being a sports designer. I will be interning for a former boxing champion; he’s a part-owner at a gym in Brooklyn where he holds boxing classes using his boxing experience to help clients improve a healthy lifestyle, achieve weight lost/muscle gain and gain boxing skills. He also holds boxing events out of this gym as well. There are a variety of reasons customers trains with my supervisor but from my perspective the clients are always enthusiastic to work with someone with such experience because boxing isn’t all about learning how to fight and to defend yourself, you have to be discipline and focus because it will improve more than just your health but your lifestyle. The gym he works out of is one of the oldest boxing gyms in New York City where the door opened up to the public in 1937. Numerous amounts of former boxers even iconic ones have gone in and out of this gym throughout it time. I am honored to be working remote as a social media designer/Graphic designer for such inspirational person.
