The purpose of my un- paid internship is to assist Lucius Jones who is the owner and general manager of the Columbus Hidden Gems and the rest of his staff with their day to day operations. Some of the key people within the organization are: Jeff Davis who is the Vice President of Recruiting, Chris Blakely who is the director of compliance, Marvin King who is the director of quality assurance and Justin Brown who is the High School Director. If you have any questions for my mentor he can be reached at (614) 330-1861. Columbus Hidden Gems is located at P.O. Box 26582 Columbus, Ohio 43226. The Columbus Hidden Gems offers a variety of things such as the Hidden Gems Academy,Personal Training, High School and Middle School Showcases, and College Placement.My duties will include Passing out jersey's, collecting registration fees, assisting with the concession stand, interviewing players and college recruits, filing, answering phones, and any other miscellaneous tasks. I am scheduled to intern on Friday's, Saturday's, and Sunday's 9am-5pm. My goals for this internship would be to use the knowledge that I have gained throughout my Sports Management program, and to gain employment with a wonderful organization like the Cincinnati Bengals while attending law school. Hidden Gems started making an impact in Columbus, Ohio around 2010 and to know that each year this company has made an impact in athletes lives by giving them the tools they need to be a successful person and an athlete and letting them know that their is life after sports. Allows me to be a part of a growing empire in which I will be able to create my own success within the sports industry.
