Meet Our Fall Interns!

Onyx Group is excited to present our new fall interns!

Our graduate intern Jue Lutz is a graduate student at Florida State in the Integrated Marketing Communications program. As an intern she will be responsible for assisting in researching and strategic planning as well as identifying new business opportunities.  In order for you to get to know Jue better here are some interesting facts about Mrs. Lutz:

She is originally from Beijing and got her undergraduate degree in advertising from the Beijing Technology and Business University.

She loves to travel and is a self proclaimed movie buff. This works out well when she’s traveling back and forth from her home town, hooray for in flight movies!

She really enjoys watching the TV show Top Chef. Her favorite dishes are soup and fish.

Why she loves Onyx: “It’s exhilarating working with a talented and creative team. I’m excited about gaining real world experience in a marketing communication agency.”

Our under graduate intern Megan Valente is a junior at Florida state in the advertising major. She’s excited to gain experience applying her new skills in a real world agency. Her responsibilities as an intern will include assisting in office administration, identifying new business opportunities and helping out with public relations. In order for you to get to know Megan better here are some interesting facts about Miss Valente:

Her favorite sports teams include the Florida State Seminoles (she’s been a fan since the cradle) and the Tampa Bay Rays.

She believes that acting like a child is the key to happiness. Bubbles, finger paints, side walk chalk and a little creativity can fix almost any problem.

She enjoys watching the shows 30 Rock, The Office and Project Runway.  Recently she has become addicted to Hulu.com and catches up on missed episodes there.

Something unexpected about Megan, she’s a Girl Scout. In high school Megan received her gold award for organizing a literacy campaign in an inner city community and thus became a Girl Scout for life.

Why she loves Onyx:  “Everyone at Onyx is so energetic and creative. There’s never a dull moment in the office and I feel comfortable and encouraged to learn here.”
