We're loving seeing all of your #TulaneSummer shots on Instagram! Keep 'em coming. I thought it might be cool to check in with a few of our students this summer to see how they are spending their vacation. Check these out!
Who: Timmy Demirjian '17
What: Intern, Sony Pictures Entertainment
Where: Los Angeles, CA
This summer I'm working in Los Angeles for Sony Pictures Entertainment. I am a part of their Spectrum Internship Program, and I'm an intern for their Columbia Pictures division. Columbia is a motion picture studio specializing in premium feature film and television content development, production, marketing, and distribution. Part of my job is to source and evaluate material, and to take meetings with talent and internal representatives to work toward building a high-quality slate of product. In addition, I will be reading and covering scripts, working in production and development, arranging screenings and drafting writer/director/actor lists in consideration for projects. It's a long way from the suburbs of Massachusetts, but I couldn't be more excited for this experience.

What: Teaching Fellow at Breakthrough New Orleans
Where: New Orleans, LA
I have a great job as a teaching fellow at Breakthrough New Orleans. Here, I teach at-risk middle school students. These students are mostly low-SES minorities. We teach them a variety of things, from review from the past year to new material, but we mostly focus on main concepts that they will learn in the following year. I get to write all of my own lesson plans, design my own curriculum, and mentor students. I am also a student, and students in the program can look up to us as somewhere they could be in 5 years (a student in college), which is much closer than their current teachers who are at least 10 years older than them.
Who: Amanda Levinson '18
What: Intern, Fox 4 News
Where: Dallas, TX
This summer, I'm interning at Fox 4 News in Dallas, Texas. I'm a marketing major, and I'm from Philadelphia, PA. For my internship, I go out every day with different reporters and help write the scripts, edit, and help coordinate for the local news.
Who: Maddie McGee '17
What: Intern, Sony Pictures Television
Where: Los Angeles, CA
I am spending this summer in Los Angeles interning for the casting team at Sony Pictures Television. I work on the studio lot assisting the casting executives and going to table reads and tapings for TV shows. I've gotten to go to table reads for Masters of Sex and tapings for One Day at a Time, a new show for Netflix. We're also working on casting three new pilots this summer. A highlight was meeting television legend Norman Lear. And yes, that is the Breaking Bad trailer above!
Who: Emily MacLaren, '18
What: Intern at Results for Development
Where: Washington, DC
This summer I am interning at Results for Development (R4D). R4D is a nonprofit based in Washington, DC that aims to provide sustainable solutions to development problems in low and middle income countries. The projects at R4D have the focus of reducing poverty and improving the lives of people. I am currently working on the innovation team, which entails being a part of the International Development Innovation Alliance (IDIA). Members of this alliance include United States Agency for International Development, UNICEF, Rockefeller Foundation, Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency, and more! Our work aims to accomplish Sustainable Development Goal 9 in the UN's 2030 Agenda: "Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation." Currently, I am involved a project that focuses on strengthening innovation ecosystems. With only two weeks of experience thus far, I have already gained a lot of knowledge on the field of development and the work of nonprofits.
Who: Chesley McCarty '17
What: Fellowship at Tulane City Center
Where: New Orleans, LA
This summer I am working with the City Center (Albert Junior and Tina Small City Center), which is a community design studio in New Orleans that is affiliated with the School of Architecture. It’s an interesting opportunity because it is more of a fellowship, so besides just design work, we also have a lot of opportunities to dive into discussions/readings on how the built environment can make the world a better place. I’m also going on a travel fellowship at the end of the summer, to Yosemite National Park, then farming in Washington for two weeks and spending some time in Seattle and Portland. This isn’t a part of the internship, but definitely has some strong associations with the work I am doing here and the work I will be doing in my thesis project.
Who: Tyler Margaretten '19
What: Intern, VMG Health
Where: Dallas, TX
This summer I'm interning in Dallas, Texas, at VMG Health, the nation's first and largest business valuation firm specifically focused on the healthcare industry. Long story short: fair market valuations of surgical centers, hospitals, physician practices, etc., for management purposes, mergers and acquisitions, etc. It's pretty fun; I'm about to wrap up week two and I'm loving it. I also am living just off SMU's campus so it's cool to check out the college scene here as well.
Who: Hannah Hauptman, '17
What: Account Manager, Discovery USA
Where: Philadelphia, PA
This summer, I'm an Account Management Intern with Discovery USA, which is a division of Publicis Health. Essentially, I'll be helping my team (including a recent Tulane business school alum!) create materials that market specific cancer treatments. This past week, I traveled to New York City, where the CEO offered advice on leadership and how to be an effective intern. Afterwards, we got to chat with past interns who now work for the company. I've always known I was interested in advertising and can't wait to learn more about healthcare marketing!
