MCM summer intern Darcy Ramirez learning publishing business

“I have always been fascinated with books; how they transport you into another world and lure you in their stories,” MCM’s summer intern Darcy Ramirez said about spending her summer learning the publishing business as a Media Intern for MCM Books.

Darcy is a senior at Texas A&M University in Kingsville with a double major in English and Communications with a specialty in Journalism. In the Fall she will resume her position as editor-in-chief of The South Texan the student newspaper. She also serves as a tutor in the Educational Opportunity Center.

This is not Darcy’s first internship. She gained valuable experience last summer with the U.S. Department of Education, TRIO Program as a Marketing, Advertising, Public Relations & Media Intern. The experience in that internship as well as here at MCM Books should prove valuable in her career aspirations in the publishing world.

“Ever since I started interning at MCM Books I have become accustomed to editing drafts, helping with public relations and advertising, and familiarizing myself with authors,” Darcy said. “This company has provided me with a great opportunity. The skills I have gained during this internship will hopefully make me indispensable to future employers.”
