During the Spring 2019 semester I had the opportunity to work with BaySail, a non-profit sailing and environmental education organization located in Bay City, Michigan. The opportunity at BaySail gave me experience with crowdfunding and running a public relations campaign from start to finish. My favorite part about this internship was exceeding our goal in raising $20,000. Below I have attached two writing samples that I worked on to promote the overall campaign.

Another memorable moment for me while working at BaySail was the day after we sent out our initial press release. This was the first time that I had press coverage after writing a press release. Take a look below at the wide variety of local press coverage that we received.
