Over the summer of 2025, I had the opportunity to be a social media intern for Ripken Experience- Aberdeen. The Ripken Experience is an impressive complex for 9-14u baseball tournaments, knockouts, home run derby's and other enjoyable baseball events.

 Alongside 2 fellow interns, I took photo and video content during the tournaments and home run derby events. The content acquired was posted on the Instagram story for real-time updates to viewersfrom the 7 various fields. I also worked in the office with the Director of Baseball Operations to create graphics using Canva for the Instagram and Facebook accounts and used Capcut to edit video content for Instagram reels and TikTok videos. This role celebrated creativity which enabled me to introduce and implement the idea of creating Instagram story highlights for each tournament or knockout at the complex.

While I gained firsthand experience of social media through my roles and responsibilities, I gained invaluable knowledge of gameday operations and customer support from my time on the complex. In the office, I learnt how to professionally handle issues from customers and software problems from payment structures. 

Increased Instagram and TikTok following by 55% to reach over 20K.
