Summer Inspiration: Celebrating Our Amazing Interns


What a blast we’ve had this year and this summer with 3 of the most talented and inspired interns in CPL history. 

They have given CPL the creative energy and collective expertise allowing us to launch three new programs and navigate the disorienting effects of C19 and the social disruption here in Minneapolis. To say we couldn’t have done it without them is an understatement.

Lily Jones joined us as a post-graduate intern and moved quickly into being our amazing Administrative Assistant, supporting the team, coordinating myriad moving parts and people, identifying gaps, and anticipating needs while caring for the unexpected with grace and ease.

Shea Hinshon began as a graphic designer, then moved quickly into professionally redesigning our web presence, and overall CPL brand design. She listens intently, distills what is needed, and delivers on schedule, adding a sensibility of beauty and imagination to her designs.

Kayla Park, the newest member of the team, began as our marketing and social media intern, then, noting her obvious marketing chops, quickly moved into overall company marketing, program brand positioning, and graphic design that expresses the energy and intention of CPL.

We so appreciate how they resonate with CPL’s mission and vision and are grateful for the opportunity to collaborate and grow together!
