Four weeks in Greece, a lifetime of memories.
A professional basketball internship, a new country, and an opportunity that took me all the way to the top of Mount Olympus.
One of the coolest opportunities I've had was spending four weeks in Thessaloniki, Greece, interning in the marketing department for professional basketball club Iraklis B.C.
I got hands-on experience with social media, graphic design, and creative marketing while learning how a professional sports organization connects with its fans. Getting to experience the sports industry in another country gave me a completely new perspective.
Outside of work, I explored Greece, experienced a new culture, and even got the opportunity to climb Mount Olympus! It was an unforgettable experience that pushed me outside my comfort zone and gave me memories and perspectives I'll carry with me long after the internship.
