Blair Martin—Summer Intern At Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy (Completing an internship: 5 points)

This summer, I completed a twelve-week internship as the External Relations Intern at LVMH in their New York City office. From day one, I was immersed in the dynamic world of luxury, which ignited a deep curiosity within me that I know will continue to shape my career journey moving forward.

Throughout the internship, I had the opportunity to engage in a variety of enriching experiences that broadened my understanding of the luxury sector and LVMH’s global impact. I completed the INSIDE LVMH certificate on the Creation, Branding, Operations, and Supply Chain track, which gave me a well-rounded perspective on how the group’s maisons work together to deliver excellence.

Some of the most rewarding highlights of the program included organizing the 2025 Communications Leaders Forum, winning the case study competition during Intern Day, and developing a retail-focused app that expanded my understanding of LVMH’s brand ecosystem. At times, I found it intimidating to step into the luxury space, however by leaning into my perspective and experiences, I found confidence in the value I brought to the table. This internship significantly contributed to my personal and professional development. It strengthened my communication skills, strategic thinking, and adaptability in high-stakes environments. Most importantly, it showed me the power of storytelling, innovation, and cultural relevance in shaping a brand’s global presence. 

I left this experience inspired not only by the craftsmanship and legacy of LVMH’s maisons, but also by the passionate individuals who drive the company forward each day.
