The holidays are here and signs of the season are all around. There is a constant flow of sugary treats in the kitchen, Christmas carols are blasting from our computers and everyone seems to have a lot of errands to run over the lunch hour. One other telltale sign it’s Christmas at MMI is the influx of our seasonal interns, who come home for winter break and return to the office to help out in our busiest time of year.

MMI has a wonderful internship program that is open to both high school and college-age students. There are always young minds buzzing around the office to assist on various projects, but during the holidays a good many of our old interns come back and suddenly the halls are bursting with helpfulness and good cheer. Unlike a lot of internship programs, you don’t just sit at a desk all day. Our interns work up a sweat – executing all manner of tasks with flair, from forming massive assembly lines for creating the latest media drop to dressing up like toy soldiers and escorting Santa and Mrs. Claus at the Sugar Land Town Square tree lighting ceremony.
I can’t help but think how different our MMI culture would be if we didn’t have them. They have always been a part of the MMI family and I don’t think any of us could get our jobs done as well without them.
