Meet the Intern : Jill Schmitz

I had the pleasure to meet her and her family on my last trip in June to Europe. So, lets take a closer look at this young woman called Jill Schmitz.

“Hi, my name is Jill. I’ll be doing my internship at JenPEN Creative Studio until January 26th of next year. It’s a honor to work at JenPEN Creative Studio. I’m very much inspired by the passion that Jen has for interior design. I’ve been on the sunny island of Curacao for a week now and I like it very much.

I really love the diversity of the internship, because in the first week I’ve already assisted at  projects like styling of a living room, a creative workshop, a photo shoot for the blog and a bathroom design. Every day is different and that makes working at JenPEN Creative Studio so fun.

I’m 19 years old and live in a town called Posterholt, which is near Roermond in the province of Limburg in the Netherlands. I study spatial design (design, product, spatial and media) at the Sint Lucas Boxtel. It’s a very broad course and I specialize in spatial design, which basically has to do with everything about interior design.

Beside my studies, I also work part time in my parents concept store, Jill & Co. They sell everything what a woman really likes, like furniture, home decor, clothes, bags, jewelry etc. Here I’ve been working for a while with a lot of pleasure.I’ve been working here for a while and I really enjoy it. My hobbies are going out, working in the concept store and shopping. Things that I do frequently.

The first week on Curacao went very well. Beautiful beaches, friendly people and a lovely weather. I think I can handle being here for the next few months”.
