Pathways to Success

Garden Spot High School

Kendell Moats – Journalism Internship

Hello! My name is Kendell Moats and I am a Marketing Intern at Garden Spot Village. Garden Spot Village is an active lifestyle retirement community only one mile away from the high school. I go into the office twice a week and get to try lots of new things in the marketing world. My days rarely look the same and that is what I love so much about this job! So, far I have written blogs, posted on public calendars, had interviews and so much more.

As I previously stated, my days rarely look the same. One of my favorite projects I have done so far is a sit-in on an interview with my mentor, Juanita Fox, and one of our residents to talk about their active lifestyle and the upcoming 10k. I have conducted interviews before due to my Podcast, but never something that I would need to write about after. This came as a challenge to me to keep up with taking notes, but once the interview was over and I started writing the blog, it all came together! I appreciate all the new experiences Garden Spot Village is giving me!

I was also able to write a blog about the Top 10 Things to Do in Lancaster County! This was a blog I was extremely passionate about because I love the area we live in. I can be creative and have an open mind at Garden Spot Village which allows me to grow my experiences and improve my resume. Other tasks that I have done are planning our upcoming articles, helping my mentor Juanita with small tasks like podcasts and communication, and now doing interviews on my own!

Garden Spot Village has taught me to have an open mind, write effectively and do things I would have never thought of before. The internship program here at Garden Spot is an amazing start to your future career.  I will be majoring in communications and marketing next year at college, so by applying my skills now and growing them at Garden Spot Village, I will be better prepared for the future!
