Summer Spotlight: Intern Edition

Our summer interns have arrived and are already hard at work and acclimating to agency life. In the fast-paced world of Watson Creative, it’s important that they roll with the punches and dive straight into their work – so far they’re nailing it! Our interns get a real, hands-on experience creating marketing and branding content for our clients, from copywriting to web design and everything in between. We were able to sit down with our interns for a quick get-to-know-you Q&A and finished just in time for them to complete their most important task: a coffee run (just kidding).

Our digital marketing intern Cole interned with us last summer and liked us enough to come back around this year. He currently attends University of Oregon and will be going into his Junior year this fall.

Our graphic design intern Phoenix recently graduated from Oregon State University with a graphic design degree. She has blue hair (this week) and is a magician with the mouse. A native of Richland, OR, she practices makeup art, photography, and animation in her free time.
