Where are you from?

I am from Dallas, TX (specifically the Carrollton area!)

What is one thing about yourself that you want everyone to know?

 I still enjoy playing music where I can, even if I’m not as involved as I used to be!

A link to something about you (website, video, post, etc.)

here is a link to a picture of my cat!

What are you up to these days?

As of late, I’ve been studying for the LSAT, skating and trying to get my cat to not hate me!

When did you intern with TCP?

I interned for TCP in the Spring of 2022 (March-June)!

How did you connect with TCP?

I was lucky enough to meet and have been coached by the TCP guys at Northwestern in the winter of 2022.

Did you gain anything from the internship that you’d like to share?

Through this internship I really recognized what it takes, in terms of day-to-day operations like logistics as well as interpersonally, to make a group performance group work, let alone thrive as much as TCP does.

What else did you do while you were interning?

I helped a bit with the online aspects of TCP’s presence, namely through their store and website.

Did you leave a legacy or mark on the organization that you’re particularly proud of? 

I got these funky skates that I showed the guys and I think that’ll pop up in their heads maybe once year so that’s nice

Favorite memory?

I really enjoyed helping TCP with their Currents Concert at DePaul; it was super fulfilling being able to witness so much of the process.

A GIF or YouTube link that sums up your experience with TCP?

If you were a cartoon character, who would you be?

I really vibe with Gunther from Adventure Time

A funny or embarrassing story from the internship?

After the Currents DePaul Concert, I had left a shirt in the concert hall after closing, so I had to call Sean to call staff to open up the hall again. Sorry!! and thanks again Sean! :))


Our interns can experience every part of TCP’s organization, from visiting recording sessions to writing grants and everything in between. We accept interns almost year-round.
