Meet the new interns!

Remember back here I put a call out for a virtual intern? Well, after 2 weeks and over 20 applications, I have found my Summer 09 interns!  Yay! I have decided to go with 2 interns as they are both super qualified, super nice and super sweet and I probably have enough work for an army of interns.

Please join me in welcoming them to Indie Fixx!

Alexa is a student at Oregon State University with a triple major and an interest in crafting and learning about indie artists and designers. She also started Project Earth, a student group whose goal is to strengthen international and local rural communities through innovative social enterprises and youth entrepreneurship education. She will be working on scheduling interviews for the Wednesday Indie Artist Fixx series among other things. I’m very excited to be working with her.

Amy is a student at Northwestern University who just finished up an internship at Sunset Mag. She has wanted to be a journalist since she was just 5 years old and she is also into the indie design and crafting scene as well. She will be helping me coordinate Feed Your Soul: the free art project and other stuff as well. I am also excited to be working with her as well.

Both Amy & Alexa will be helping me answer email and will be contacting indie artists, crafters, designers and shop owners on my behalf, so don’t be surprised if you here from them and not me!

I am also accepting for Fall 09’s virtual interns. See here for an idea of the duties. Email me a note about why you would like to intern for Indie Fixx as well as your resume. I will collect applications until about mid-August.
