Casey Campbell, Marketing/Sales Intern with Los Angeles magazine 


What's Los Angeles magazine like?

The atmosphere here is amazing. Everyone is passionate about this city, and our love for Los Angeles definitely translates into the magazine.

Where do you go to school, and what are you studying?
I'm a senior at Pepperdine University and am double majoring in Public Relations and Advertising.

What are some of your day-to-day duties at your internship?
I love the spontaneity of having something different to do everyday. Some days I'm compiling a RSVP list for a movie screening or sending out media kits to clients, and other days I'm attending a luncheon or participating in marketing meetings.

What’s your favorite thing about your internship? 

My favorite thing is definitely the people because everyone here is incredible     and brings something different to the table. It's very inspiring being surrounded by so many passionate, outgoing and goal-oriented individuals. 

What’s your favorite project you’ve worked on?
Working at The Food Event was exciting and has been my favorite experience. It was so awesome to see all of the hard work evolve into such an amazing event. Talking to guests and seeing their enthusiasm towards the event and our magazine was very rewarding.

What’s the most important thing you’ve learned from your internship so far?
I've learned that it's important to work hard, but it's also essential to have fun and love what you're doing.

What are your career aspirations?
As of right now, I'd love to keep gaining experience in this sector and hopefully one day become an Account Director for a magazine. It's also a dream of mine to start my own non-profit down the road too.

What do you hope to accomplish during your internship?
I hope to make a positive impact and really help my department continue propelling the magazine forward.

What’s your favorite thing about Los Angeles?
The best part of Los Angeles is that anything is possible here. I've touched snow and been to the beach in the same day, not many cities can say that.

What sets your magazine apart from other magazines?

Los Angeles magazine really captures the essence and energy of LA's culture and people. I've heard our magazine described as "the diary of LA" and I couldn't agree more.
