Hello everyone! My name is Megan Harton (she/her pronouns) and I’m currently a student at Rochester Institute of Technology pursuing a Master’s in Business Administration. I just recently graduated from RIT in Bachelor’s in Fine Art with a major of Visual Media, a minor of Business, an immersion of Economics, and a specialization in Print Media and Marketing.
My creative experience is in a variety of fields as I’ve intern at multiple different places. I was a full-time summer intern at Villanti Printers, an offset and digital printing company. I worked in both the press and pre-press department retouching images for various social media sites, managing and calibrating colors printers as well as creating mock-ups for the clients. My second internship was at Driven Studio, and I worked as a project-based intern. For this company, I was a production assistant for a video and photo shoot with one of our clients. Lastly, I’m an intern in the Recreation/Tourism department for National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA). I complete random tasks from my supervisors such as preparing a web-ready document, adjusting a postcard graphic, and attend various meetings.
One job I currently have at RIT is through the Academic Success Center. Previously I was a Supplemental Instructor where I supported Photographic Technology I & II, however now I am a Mentor in this program. As a mentor, I provide advice and feedback to SI leaders as well as support to the Program Assistants.
In my free time, I love to read, be outdoors especially hiking, walking or biking, play board games, and spending time with my friends and family.
