Introductions and Beginning of Internship

Hi, my name is Elizabeth Lorti and I have just finished my second year of three at King's College London, but live in Lucca, Italy when I'm not at university. I am currently completing a BA in International Development and look forward to working in this sector in the future. In addition, I'm highly interested in social media and marketing which is in large part why I enjoy this internship, and I believe that through the cultivation of skills in this internship, I will be able to learn valuable skills and knowledge that will be applicable to development work later on. 

I will be officially beginning my internship on Monday and I'm looking forward to beginning the mandatory training and the project I will be working on. Additionally, I've been managing the social media for HPCC Systems this past year. This will be the second year I'm working in Marketing at HPCC Systems and I'm excited to start! 

Also, a fun fact about me is that I am a huge foodie!

Week 12: Finishing my Internship

This week I have worked towards finishing up my internship. This included working on social media content for the Community Day events- including marketing focused on keynote speakers, when the event is beginning, etc. Since I am continuing the internship beyond this as I work year long on social media- this is something I will be scheduling throughout September. I feel very lucky to have worked with everyone that I have, and I'm happy to conclude my internship knowing that I'm proud of myself.

Week 11: Wrapping up

This last week has been mainly focused on wrapping everything up for my work on the Tech and Community Day Summit events. This consisted of adding all speakers into the Expo Platoform with my mentor, asd well as making sure that everyone who provided their bio and photo would have their information in the system. I also scheduled out social media for the whole month, so this allowed me to focus on wrapping things up and phasing out my internship as I'm approaching the final week. I am very happy I got to have this opportunity to work with a lot of the people that I did :)

Week 9: Schedule Recordings for Sessions!

This week, I scheduled recordings for all sessions! This was a bit of a time-consuming task because for each session, I would have check the speakers' response, go into their Outlook calender to see when everyone was available (with consideration of timezones), and then enter  Calendly to schedule their day, time and all their information so their recording could be booked. I ended up doing this for over 40 sessions- so it took a lot of time and I spent most of the week doing this.  I also worked on preparations for my final Intern presentation in front of Stu's team for next week. I was able to meet with both Jessica and Hugo on Wednesday and Friday to gain approval of what I would be presenting, visuals, and the information I would include.
