#OwnIt

Meet Tyler Houp, a junior majoring in Marketing with a minor in Artificial Intelligence!

This past summer, Tyler interned at Schonfeld in New York City as an Early Careers Talent Marketing Intern. In this role, he supported the firm’s employer branding strategy by conducting social media audits, developing content ideas, and assisting with the launch of their Instagram. Collaborating with human capital and communications teams gave him valuable insight into how marketing and people strategy intersect.

Tyler values how Toppel keeps students connected to opportunities, from weekly newsletters to career fairs and networking events. These resources have helped him discover internships, stay informed, and gain the tools to take the next steps in his career.

Piece of Advice:

“Take advantage of every opportunity, even if it’s not in the industry you first imagined. I never thought I’d work in the financial sector, but interning at Schonfeld showed me how marketing connects across fields and taught me lessons that shaped my career path. Staying open to the unexpected can lead to the most impactful growth.”
