Indianapolis 500: May 15 - May 25 2025

AJ Foyt Racing
Social Media Internship

I had the amazing opportunity to work with A.J. Foyt Racing for the duration of the INDYCAR Qualifying and Race Weeks for the 109th Indianapolis 500.

Over the span of these two weeks, I assisted in creating graphics, generating ideas for social media, and posting to Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook live from Race Week. 

I worked alongside the Communications Director: Marie Fornoro to assist in any way I was needed during the two race weeks.

YSU Athletics 
Marketing Internship

During the Spring semester 2025, I worked with YSU Athletics as a Marketing intern 

Hours

I work about 6-7 hours a day 3 times a week, but it varies based on workload and events that week.

Responsibilities

I answer mostly to our social media coordinator to complete any jobs she gives me and bring ideas to the table to use in the future. 

Swim & Dive

I have been working specifically with the Swim & Dive team to run their social media for the past three years. With a previous team of about 5 members, we expanded to 12 team members this year, with me as the leader. Leading the bigger team this year, I learned a lot about leadership, team management, and conflict management. It was a much harder role, but I am so grateful to have been trusted with it.

01

Canva Pro

Graphics

I am the most comfortable with Canva Pro in creating graphics. Over the years, I have moved from using previous templates and changing them to fit my needs, to now creating templates from scratch. This has helped me grow and use more creativity to reach the vision I am aiming for.

02

Adobe Premiere Pro

Videos

I am learning to use Adobe Premiere Pro to edit videos by clipping long videos, piecing them together, and adding cutouts, prompts, and outros. I have already edited about 10-15 videos for various YSU Athletics teams.

03

In-Game/Race/Competition Content

Live Events

I attended the 109th Indianapolis 500 Race in May 2025. I was in the paddock, garage, pit lane, and racetrack from about 6am to 8pm Thursday to Sunday capturing content for the A.J. Foyt Racing stories and media. I created a few graphics on site and live posted throughout the weekend.
