We’d like to offer a hearty SPC welcome to our two newest interns. After an extensive search, we’ve selected two students for 2018, both from Western Michigan University. Here’s a little bit about them:

Michaela VanVleet

BS in Graphic and Printing Science, emphasis in Multimedia and Minor in Communications

Senior at Western Michigan University

From Battle Creek, MI

Expected Graduation Date: Fall 2018

Quote: “I am most looking forward to immersing myself in the direct mail processes at SPC while learning about this part of the industry. I am eager to expand my knowledge of printing and apply my education to my work. I feel honored to have the opportunity to live and work in Chicago with Specialty Print Communications for the summer; and look forward to the relationships I will build while with the company.”

Jake Wendell

BS in Graphic and Printing Science, Minor in General Business

Sophomore at Western Michigan University
From Elmhurst, IL

Expected Graduation Date: Spring 2020

Quote: “I seek to gain valuable work experience in the industry that I love, as well as to prove that I have a strong skillset in business and sales. I look forward to the opportunity to learn day in and day out at SPC and to develop and grow with my colleagues.”

We’re very excited to have Michaela and Jake join our team, ready to grow and dive deep into the direct mail print industry. Our Internship Program is a comprehensive, 12-week immersive experience where students spend dedicated time within every department of the company alongside industry veterans who educate and instruct them through hands-on experience. We pride ourselves in helping students get a taste of all phases of the printing and direct mail marketing business. We’ll post updates from both of them in the near future.
