I'm Back! Cork and Platter intern!

Hello Fellow Interns!

I somehow had gotten locked out of this blog group...but I'm happy to be back! Last time I checked in with you all I had just started my internship at Cork and Platter - San Diego's number one catering company. My boss, Chef Maria Sparks who is a well known food stylist and caterer/party planner has been absolute joy to work with. I couldn't be happier! Since the beginning of June I have been spending my weeks building a website, attending fabulous events, assisting in food photo shoots, and blogging nonstop! It's been an absolute blast. This internship has really opened my eyes to the culinary world, and definitely expanded my palette! My boss has been a great mentor throughout these past few weeks, she has understood my schedule of taking summer school courses and learning a new area - but she's certainly kept me busy! I spend four hours each day teaching myself how to code and build a website because my boss wanted to completely redo our website as ours was outdated and not very user friendly. I've also been running Cork and Platter's Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, and online blog.

One of the most rewarding experiences of this internship thus far has been when a few of my blogs that I posted were re-tweeted and spread, even picked up by San Diego's Magazine! It has been such an honor to spread my blogs, and I am honestly working the dream job! I get to attend some fabulous events, take pictures, and blog about it! Talk about living the dream. I never knew that this area of work was possible, and I've realized that marketing is something I am actually really passionate about. I love drumming up business for Cork and Platter, and representing my boss in the best way possible.

I have quite a bit of blogging to make up for, so I will be back to blogging soon!

Thanks for reading!
