Sydney Morlok

Summer Intern

Sydney Morlok didn’t come here to watch from the sidelines.

A rising senior in advertising at Indiana University, Sydney is experiencing agency life from the inside this summer, instead of just reading about it. That means strategy sessions, client meetings, and plenty of details that aren’t covered in marketing textbooks. 

She’s also behind the scenes—and behind the mic—for The Chirp, Rare Bird’s forthcoming podcast featuring client stories and conversations with the Flock. She operates on a simple principle that has served her well: assume good intentions. It’s the kind of outlook that powers collaboration, which is essential in any business.

As it happens, those three words are practically Rare Bird’s secret motto, which means she fit in here before she walked through the door.

When she’s off the clock, you might find Sydney at Luciana’s with her best friends, or at home trying to teach her dogs, Rudy and Lea, new tricks.

My secret talent is… 
Walking on my hands.
