“After simulating real life business scenarios in the classroom, I am excited to put what I’ve learned into action at Step One,” said Mezza. “I am very fortunate to have the opportunity to intern at such an established firm in my hometown, and I am looking forward to building upon my knowledge which will help me in the future.”

“We look forward to having Natasha with us, as her current skill set, along with her willingness to learn, will not only be beneficial to our agency, but to our clients as well,” said Stepien.

Culeton is entering into her senior year at St. John Fisher College where she is studying Marketing with a minor in Strategic Communications.

Culeton maintains an active presence on her college campus as Outreach Captain of the Teddi Dance for Love Committee, a 24-hour charity dance marathon.

“I am very excited to have the opportunity to practice and refine the skills I have acquired at school in an environment that cultivates growth and development,” said Culeton. “I look forward to gaining professional marketing experience and exploring the different aspects of this field to decipher which avenue I would like to pursue in my career.”
