Hey guys!

I’m Alex, Engage’s newest Digital Strategy intern. I hail from Los Angeles California, but have lived here in DC for the last few years while attending Georgetown University.

Georgetown is where I met Maggie, the Operations Manager here at Engage. Maggie worked at this cool grocery store on campus where my freshman dorm friends and I would all go to get milkshakes late at night when we didn’t feel like doing homework. Fast-forward to three years later, and here we are again, hanging out at Engage. No milkshakes here, but I’ll make sure that changes soon.

I’ve only been here for a couple days, but I’m quickly learning it’s the people working here that make Engage great. Everyone has been so welcoming and friendly–and I have still yet to be attacked by a nerf gun (@Colleen). President & CEO Nick Schaper even brought District Taco for everyone in the office this morning. He must know that breakfast tacos are a quick way to my heart.

I’m really excited to see what Engage has in store for me this semester, and I look forward to using some of my prior digital media experience and developing it further while I’m here. Studying Marketing and Math at Georgetown, my interests lie where logic and creativity intersect. I hope that while at Engage, I can explore a little bit more about how analytics can contribute to an effective digital strategy. Feel free to read a little bit more about my background and interests at my bio page, and never hesitate to reach out with questions about what it’s like to intern at Engage!
