SUMMERTIME SUCCESS

Murals and artwork abound in Providence. When a historic music space needed updating, JWU came to the rescue. In a competition/class project, students reimagined the crumbling facade. Graphic design student Kristina Faiola ’22 won by combining both musical themes and Providence/Rhode Island natives.

Instead of spending his summer break by the beach, Darius Ferguson ’21 chose to get a leg up on his career and landed an internship in the Treasury department for IntraGovernmental Transactions at The Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. There, he worked beside the Treasury Division’s agency implementation team, a group tasked with tracking intra-governmental transactions, to become more familiar with the database used for G-Invoicing.

SECRE T SAUCE

A L E A P O F FA I T H

During his senior year, Applied Food Science major Tobias Simon ’20 reverse-engineered a commercial product, Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ Sauce, to create what he called Sweet Baby Toby Barbecue Sauce. Little did he know, this was the start of a full-time career with McClancy, a food product innovation and manufacturing company in Charlotte, North Carolina.

For Rebecca Stillman ’20, an Advertising & Marketing Communications major specializing in Creative Advertising, taking an internship at a public relations firm in Manhattan was a bit of a leap. By the end of her internship, she says not only did she learn more about the public relations industry, but she worked hard to set herself apart and made a ton of new connections.
