#BossedUp

Melanie McGrath is a sophomore studying Media Writing & Production. She is also pursuing minors in Creative American Music and Spanish.

Throughout this academic year, Melanie has been interning with the Recording Academy/GRAMMYs. “My role focuses on creating and carrying out industry programming for GRAMMY U, the collegiate membership base of the Recording Academy. I work directly with our Sr. Project Manager and she gives me tons of opportunities to be really hands-on in the industry – including attending the awards this year!”

Melanie shares that coming to Toppel for resume and interview advice helped her land an internship this summer with Apple Music. “Though the Recording Academy helped me develop a lot of skills directly related to the creative industry, Toppel was the first place I went when I knew I wanted to do content creation for Apple Music. I workshopped my resume, and when I found out I had gotten an interview, I went in for interview advice."

Some advice from Melanie: “Take your passion and make it really, really known to anyone who you could be working with in the future. For both the Recording Academy and Apple, I was in contact with the supervisors way before I even pursued a position there. Also, don’t be afraid to be yourself even if you think you aren’t ‘business-y’! I would classify myself as a total art lover, bohemian-obsessed soul, but I’m interning with Apple…anything can happen if you put yourself out there!”

Jose Gonzalez

Office Manager

I received my Bachelor’s Degree from University of Miami in the spring of 2018, and I am currently working towards an M.A. in Management Studies here at the University. I joined the Toppel Career Center as part of the Operations & Strategic Initiatives Team in 2018. If I could offer some words of wisdom for the future they would be to not be afraid to take risks; sometimes you’ll find yourself ahead and sometimes you’ll find yourself behind but in the end, the race is only with yourself so always finish what you start. Outside of the University, I enjoy assisting whenever possible at a non-profit organization known as Operation Enduring Warrior, whose mission is to honor, empower, and motivate our wounded military and law enforcement. It is an absolute honor and a humbling experience to work with these veterans who have sacrificed and done so much for this great nation. My other hobbies include martial arts and playing soccer, also you can always catch me on Saturdays supporting our Canes during football season.
