Rob Goodlatte

The spring semester of my junior year at Duke is nearing its close with finals beginning next week. The week after that I’ll be flying to Seattle for a summer internship with Newsvine.

I couldn’t be more excited about this internship—I’ll be spending the summer working on the user interface of Newsvine alongside one of the best teams in the business. I’ve been a fan of the service since day one—Newsvine brings some much-needed authenticity and transparency to the news businesses that’s frankly been missing for awhile.

Newsvine has just released an entirely new, entirely bad-ass user interface codenamed Evergreen which I’ll have the pleasure of working on this summer. I’ll be working directly under Mike Davidson—which will undoubtedly be an amazing learning opportunity and will provide the sort of direct access to leadership that no corporate internship could provide.

   Congrats! I must say I’m jealous of your opportunity to work with such a progressive team. Plus I’ve always wanted to see Seattle.

   Surprisingly, Rob did quite well during his 21-Run here in Seattle, despite our efforts to have the young man tap out early.
