Nestlé Purina - Writing Sample
Role: Corporate Public Relations Intern

“Today, we join the nation in celebrating National Intern Day, a day that honors all the hard work that interns bring to the table.
Being a St. Louis native and getting the chance to intern at a company that's deeply connected to the city's culture is really special to me. Purina is not only a very well-known brand, but it's also a part of the community I grew up in, which makes this experience even more meaningful.
These past few months serving as an intern on the Corporate PR team have been full of learning and growth, and I've had the privilege of working alongside some of the most talented and passionate professionals in the industry. From day one, I've been embraced with open arms by every associate I've met, and their kindness, passion and trust have truly made a difference in my professional development.
The level of support and inclusion here at Purina is incredible. It's not just an internship program; it's like being part of a big Purina family.
To all Purina associates, I want to express my appreciation on behalf of all the Purina interns. Your warm welcome, patience and mentorship have made a significant impact on our journeys here.
