Our Career Clarity program kicked off Monday with our first batch of interns arriving to the office. They will be with us through the end of July, working in account services/PR, copywriting and art direction/design. Here’s a look at the chosen few:
Account Services/PR: Sarah Kurrus, Vanderbilt
Sarah comes to us from right here in Little Rock. She’s had other internships at PR firms in Little Rock and Nashville, but we’re betting ours will be her favorite. Sarah is the community service type and likes to travel. She’s involved in leadership programs at Vanderbilt, including within her sorority.
Copywriting: Robert Haynes, UCA
Robert is from North Little Rock and works for his school paper as ad manager and designer while classes are in session. He’s a big gamer and has no problem talking at length if someone asks him about his favorite RPG (that’s role-playing game for the rest of us). Our advice? Don’t ask him about his favorite RPG.
Art Direction/Design: John Cater, UALR
John is a graphic designer and illustrator from Lonoke. He freelances in web design and has completed several sites that will be used by his school. We’ve discovered he’s also a big video game fan, so he and Robert should get along just fine.
We’re excited to welcome our interns and watch the program as it gets underway. Next week, they’ll begin their very own project helping a local nonprofit, Safe Places. Until then, we’ve got them hard at work. Cream and sugar, please.

A Cinco de Mayo to Remember
Competition at the first Sells Agency Nacho Bowl was fierce, but we have to admit that our creativity far surpassed our scores. All four of our teams helped prove that it’s not whether you win or lose – it’s how goofy you look when you play the game.
The Bowl and the Beautiful, starring Jason, Emily, Kristen and Allison, quickly learned that bowling and dresses didn’t mix. The team went 0-2, but Emily emerged victorious with the prize for lowest score.
Amber, Thad, Leigh and Casey teamed up as the Bowling Stones. Coming into the match as underdogs, the team surprised themselves with a record of 1-1 and had a great time.
The Alley-pinos played well together and dominated their first opponent. EnchiLaura and Gregamole looked like pros while Markarita and Jade No Carne had some great frames.
The team to beat from the beginning was Spare Me. Mike, Rachel, Jon and Lauren came armed with wrist guards and their own bowling balls. Jon’s first game score, complete with five consecutive strikes, was the high score for the day.
The Alley-pinos took on Spare Me in the heated championship round – complete with heckling and scheming. Both teams bowled well and, as chance would have it, Mike bowled a spare in the last frame to defeat the Alley-pinos by four.
