UA Little Rock Student Gains Valuable Work Experience at Media & More Consulting
A University of Arkansas at Little Rock student is getting a taste of life as a marketing executive while interning for Media & More Consulting.
Ryleigh Dobson, a senior marketing major, is working as a marketing data analyst intern at Media & More this semester.
Founded by President and CEO Chuck Spohn in 2013, Media & More Consulting is a boutique marketing agency based in North Little Rock. In her internship, Dobson is gaining valuable work experience by assisting the executives with marketing projects. One of her projects involves developing a database system for the company using Google Studio.
“This is my first internship, and I love it,” Dobson said. “This is the best opportunity I’ve ever had, and everyone at Media & More has been great. This internship is going to help me by expanding my network and helping me gain experience.”
Dobson learned about the opportunity through an internship fair she attended as part of the School of Business’s Career Catalyst Program, which helps business students prepare to enter the workforce through clinics, workshops, career fairs, and other events. She is thankful to Shannon Gwinn, director of the Center for Student and Career Services in the School of Business, for helping her find the internship.
Dobson will graduate from UA Little Rock in December 2024. Afterwards, she plans to find a full-time position in marketing and earn her Master of Business Administration degree.
