26 Oct Kent Nishimura: The Intern that Could

Internships are often thought of as “gum beneath the shoe” work, but they may be the very thing that unlocks doors of opportunity, leading to you landing your dream job. For many creatives the professional path is not a straight shot, but rather a winding process of discovery and change. Third up to bat in our Season 2 lineup is Kent Nishimura, known as “the forever intern.”  In this episode, Kent  shares how his whirling dance of “missteps” actually set the stage for him to land an unexpectedly perfect position at the LA Times as a photojournalist. His story is one that will inspire and encourage anyone seeking to make sense of their on-the-way trek, and will fan the embers of that insatiable tug in our hearts to discover and do what we love.
