1. One of the many highlights of my first day at Relativity was discovering that the sports department represents some of my favorite athletes. Signed jerseys of New York Knicks players Amar’e Stoudemire and Iman Shumpert decorate the hallway, and other gems such as a customized Knicks basketball with Shumpert’s name printed on it make for nice surprises when strolling through unexplored parts of the office. As an avid Yankees fan, I most appreciated the fact that among those represented is baseball legend and this year’s All-Star Game MVP, Mariano Rivera. 

Little notes like this show how much we love our clients over here at Relativity!

2. The fancy espresso machine in the kitchen brings me back to my high school days when I worked as a barista. I just have to take note that I can only enjoy a few shots of espresso at the expense of my shaking hands. Intern insight: a black eye is a bad choice. 

So many drink choices – good thing I’m not holding up the line at Starbucks!

3. My assignments include coverage of Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s directorial debut and Relativity’s most recent film release, Don Jon. I even had the opportunity to attend an advance screening of the film, which is all about a New Jersey bartender. 

Director, writer, AND lead actor? Look out, Hollywood – JGL’s a triple threat!

4. On the way to the kitchen, fellow Georgetown alum Bradley Cooper looks down at me from the poster of Limitless (a Relativity-produced film and soon-to-be television series) with his piercing blue eyes and silently reminds me that it’s okay to graduate from a government-centric university and subsequently pursue a career in entertainment. The Coop makes Hoyas look good. 

This guy’s talents are limitless.

5. I have always been a huge animal lover. To this day I consider the massive book of dog breeds that I received on my fifth birthday one of my all-time favorite presents. So it always brightens my day when I hear the faint sound of jingling dog tags or have the chance to give a warm welcome to a canine visitor. A pet-friendly office is a happy office! 

My new pal Hal is one happy camper at Relativity!
