Summary

I am excited to apply for a sales internship opportunity that will allow me to further develop my skills and contribute to a team. I am a student at Fairfield University in the class of 2026. I am eager to gain practical experience in these fields and apply the knowledge I have acquired in the classroom to real-world scenarios. I have experience in customer service, social media management, and e-commerce, which I believe will be invaluable in an internship. I am particularly proud of founding a successful sneaker resale business when I was just 16 years old. This experience taught me valuable sales and marketing skills, developed my entrepreneurial spirit, and taught me the importance of dedication. I am passionate about building my skillset and am eager to gain experience in these fields. I am confident that my enthusiasm, strong work ethic, and ability to learn quickly would make me a valuable addition to any team. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss my qualifications further.
