2. In the Spring of 2011, I completed an internship in the Promotions Department at 102.3 XLC/1220 WKRS, Lake County’s #1 Contemporary Pop Music Station! I worked one on one with 102.3XLC and 1220 WKRS’s Promotions and Interactive Director, Janelle Rominski.

3. Throughout my internship at 102.3 XLC, I mainly performed basic office duties like making phone calls, updating databases, and filing paperwork. I created “bonus codes” for loyal listeners to win cool prizes. I entered in the prize sheets from the contests callers win on the radio. I also worked remotes (events) at Libertyville Mitsubishi and Rockenbach Chevrolet where I had to interact with listeners and promote the station.102.3 XLC
