Name: Hope Brimelow\n\nAge: 20\n\nHometown: Greenwich, CT\n\nSchool: University of St. Andrews, Scotland\n\nHow I came to be an intern at Teen Vogue still surprises me and I can really only attribute it to a combination of luck, timing and being proactive. Teen Vogue has been my favorite magazine since I bought my first issue when I was fifteen. Fast forward five years and I find that a shelf of my bookcase looks very similar to the shelf of all of the original issues that is now next to my desk in the fashion features department.\n\nI go to school in Scotland and at the beginning of the year I got a call from my Mom inviting me to go on a business trip with her to Paris for fashion week. Before she had even explained the details I got onto my computer, found a cheap flight and booked my ticket. At the Nina Ricci show I happened to be sitting behind Gloria Baume, the Fashion Director. As we waited for the show I introduced myself and we started talking. I told her how much I loved Teen Vogue and she invited me to visit the offices during my spring break. Before I came to visit I emailed her and told her that I was interested in an internship and she replied telling me that Jane Keltner, the Fashion News Director, was looking for someone.\n\nWhen I came to visit I was introduced to Jane and interviewed about the internship. I left the Conde Nast building that day in disbelief that I had not only just visited my favorite magazine's offices but that I could have possibly also secured my dream internship! Luckily I was fortunate enough to be offered the job, and that feeling of disbelief has still not worn off. As a fashion features intern I transcribe interviews, research upcoming stories and meet with people who we are thinking of doing features on.\n\nMy advice for anyone that is trying to get an internship at Teen Vogue is to reach out directly to the people who work there. Wherever you may be, if you recognize someone you should go up to them and introduce yourself. Personal contact is everything and you have to be proactive and reach out!\n\nI look forward to posting more blogs entries but in the mean time if you have any questions I would be happy to answer them!"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
