Avery is also a proud intern-alumni of the Center for Communication and Global Citizen. She has a passion for all things audio and finds magic in connecting with people.

On Thursday, July 23, at 6pm ET, join us on Zoom where Avery and Maria will answer your questions about securing internships while still in school and transitioning from an internship to working full-time at large media companies.
