Currently, I would say I don’t have a role model at work, but I do see my supervisor as a mentor figure. And I respect her because she keeps it real with me. She’s easygoing and easy to work with, which I really value. She’s also very supportive and open to answering any questions. I would say she really showcases a mentor figure when I don’t understand how to do something or I’m just confused on a project, and I can always turn to her for support. In addition to all of that, she’s always open to walking me through something or hopping on a quick call when I need it. And provides me with valuable feedback that has allowed me to create new connections and expand on my skill set.
Throughout my internship I’ve felt like I’ve opened up more to my supervisor and feel more relaxed around her. I recently had a call with her, the copy supervisor, and the copy intern to discuss a project we would all be working on, as art and copy go hand in hand. In that experience we not only shared how our internship has gone but also got to talk about our concerns and plans. We made jokes and got to learn a bit more about ourselves.
