MOST LIKELY TO: EAT THE LAST PIECE OF FOOD OFF A SHARED plate
I forged an interest in writing my senior year of high school, which became a full-fledged competition to earn the highest grade for my senior research project. I think I placed second, to which I’ve never let myself down.
As I transitioned into a private college in the Napa Valley, I succumbed to my parents' wishes of becoming a nurse for the first two years of college; however, I couldn't handle securing straight Bs in my science classes and breathing in the heinous and detestable smell of formaldehyde emanating from a 2-year-old cadaver.
I owned up to my passion of writing and became an English literature and marketing communications double major.
And now, through a little bit of luck and hard work, I've graduated with honors and worked as a product content strategy intern at Airbnb, surpassing nearly 6,000 other competitors. You could say I enjoy words and their visual counterparts.
Team feedback
“Kaleb has been an exceptionally quick study, which has enabled him to have significantly greater-than-expected impact very early on in his internship. For someone at this stage of a career, he’s very much performing above expectations, and doing so in a domain that will be extremely valuable as a recent grad in such a fast-moving industry.”
“Kaleb is very thorough in his process and actively shares his progress with design.”
“Kaleb has been very diligent and delivers work without delay.”
“His content work gave the team an opportunity to implement an experiment I’ve been recommending as a researcher for over a year.”
“Kaleb has excelled in a number of areas, but the one that sticks out to me is his natural inclination to create relationships with seemingly everyone who not only has a stake in his work, but might also have any valuable context on it. He’s done this without my asking since the beginning of the internship, and this is perhaps the most valuable skill for an early-career content strategist to have (beyond the basic requirements for the job, of course). It’s in short supply among working writers, and it’s something that Kaleb already does at a level far above the ostensible expectations of someone at his career level.”
