Melanie Aikins is a senior Media and Journalism major from Delaware County, PA. She is among the current interns at the Bloomsburg Childrens Museum. Her tasks at the museum consist of collaborating on press releases, handling the blog site and helping with advertising for the museum.

Her favorite thing about the museum is her opportunity to grow.

“This non- profit has been around for a while, and they have run a tight ship. Adapting to their routine and learning how to contribute to their vision is helping me grow in my major.”

One challenge Melanie has come across is time management. She is currently enrolled in 19 credits plus heavily involved in two clubs. This has been challenging and rewarding.

“I am taking 2 classes over the average college student plus an internship and two clubs. This is extremely challenging, but I am constantly on the go and working hard,” she explains.

We are happy to have you, Melanie!
