Commerce Lexington Inc.Leadership Development Intern
May. 2012 - Jul. 2012Lexington, Kentucky AreaDuring my summer as a volunteer intern for the Lexington Chamber of Commerce, I was able to expand my experience and professional development within my Community Communications and Leadership Development minor. Commerce Lexington Inc. seeks to promote economic development, job creation, and overall business growth in Lexington and its neighboring communities, while strengthening its existing businesses through the many programs and services that the organization offers. Under this mission statement, I assisted the staff in event planning, clerical work, and daily operations in respect to development programs for the city.
