![]() ![]() My advice for students who are searching for internships is to remain strong when faced with rejections, take advantage of your network and connections, and keep your options open. New associates sailing trip on San Francisco Bay When editing and providing feedback on these templates, I referred back to major course concepts from SCC 410, especially from the unit about developing strong objectives and designing curriculum. Included in the kit are sample presentations, worksheets, surveys, and email communications. Additionally, Training and Consulting in the Corporate Context, or SCC 410, directly applied to my internship, specifically with the creation of DEI&B Toolkit. For example, Marketing Through the Communicator’s Lens, or SCC 305, provided a solid base with lectures and discussions about consumer behavior, audience segmentation, market research, and beyond. Several courses within the School of Communication helped me be successful in my position. Belding said, “Thanks to all of those who contributed to this toolkit which was a massive effort, particularly Lia Hanson and our intern, Braden Koch, who took the lead designing the look and feel of the DEI&B website and brought this to the finish line.” Katie Belding sent a firm-wide message that mentioned my significant contributions to the project. It provides operational guidance on how to attract, select, retain, and develop a diverse and inclusive workforce. It is designed for the portfolio companies’ CEOs, founders, and their People teams. The DEI&B Toolkit was recently released to the firm’s over 200 portfolio companies. One major project and success story I was part of was helping create Norwest’s Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEI&B) Toolkit with the Senior Director of Events, Lia Hanson, under time constraints. Furthermore, I assisted with in-person and webinar-style brand and networking events. Additionally, I completed market research on competitive activity and analyzed social media engagement. ![]() Also, I monitored Norwest and their portfolio companies’ online activity and press coverage. My range of responsibilities included crafting conference briefs and social media copy. ![]() Portfolio Services refers to the network and resources Norwest provides to its over 200 portfolio companies the firm invests in.

The Norwest marketing team (left to right): Lia Hanson (Senior Director, Events), Lisa Ames (Chief Marketing Officer), Braden Koch (Marketing Intern), Kate Dishaw (Director of Communications), Glen Kunene (Senior Director, Editorial) She connected me with the marketing team at Norwest, and I discussed with them how a marketing internship with the firm could be a possibility. I saw overlap between her interests and mine, so I asked if she could point me in the right direction as I searched for communication and marketing internships. I was particularly interested in Belding’s communication and public relations background and education. Her daughter and I performed in multiple stage productions together back in high school. I reached out to a family friend, Katie Belding, the Partner of Portfolio Services at Norwest. I found this opportunity through some good ol’ fashioned networking with my connections back at home in northern California. The firm focuses its investments in early to late-stage businesses in the consumer, enterprise, and healthcare sectors. From May through December of this year, I was the Marketing Intern for Norwest Venture Partners, an investment firm based in the San Francisco Bay Area. I am majoring in Strategic and Corporate Communication and minoring in Leadership Studies. My name is Braden Koch, and I will be graduating in January 2023.

As long as you use it sensibly and don’t overdo your exposure to the sun, Shade All-Natural Sunscreen offers a good level of protection. Those four ingredients are shea butter, beeswax, coconut oil and zinc oxide. This sunscreen only uses four ingredients, which is impressive when you consider how long the list of ingredients is on most sunscreens. ![]() Created by Colorado-based artist Lawrence Argent, the curious blue bear stands 40 feet tall – you can walk under it and get a great photo.
