Summary
In Spring 2025 I co-oped at Hamilton by Gunnebo in Milford, Ohio, joining their Marketing team as a Graphic Designer. Hamilton is a global manufacturer in security solutions and my role centered on supporting marketing initiatives aimed at boosting engagement, redesigning web presence, planning internal events, and producing photo and video content. Working closely with Hamilton's marketing manager gave me hands-on experience across a diverse range of projects and a deeper understanding of how design operates within a global manufacturing environment.
While I was deeply engaged in the collaborative content at Messer the rest of my projects were confidential but I am happy to answer questions regarding my experience!
Key Takeaways
Collaboration is a crucial building block for my professional development. They aren't going to bite, take some chances, learn new experiences, connect with some new amazing people.
Adaptability in the workplace is crucial to success even if you don't want to do it. People are willing to teach you new experiences and that will give you a knowledge boost, never turn down experiences that will teach you new things.
Flexibility in the workplace comes from trust and communication. Being able to clearly and concisely communicate my needs makes it easier on everyone not just me.
Co-op Highlights
Huge thank you to my mentors Angelee H. & Lindsey M. Additional thanks to Will J. and the Pursuit Marketing team for making my final co-op an amazing experience.
