Once again, we were humbled & overwhelmed at the amazing applicants we received for our internships. It’s always tough to find the best team – but we’re excited to introduce you to our Spring 2011 Mochaterns!
They will be working alongside our staff in Nashville from January 18 – May 6.
———-
Name: Lindsey Tipple
Department: Graphic Design
Hometown: Lancaster, Ohio
University/Year/Major: The Art Institute of Pittsburgh (online division) – I’ll have my graphic design degree in February!
Favorite place you’ve traveled: I love Ghana. Everything about it wins me over – the way the air smells, the food, the music, the dancing. The people, however, are the very best part. I can’t wait to go back.
Hidden talent: I’ve been playing saxophone for almost 19 years. I can’t believe I’m old enough to have been doing anything for that long.
If you could have a pen pal, who would it be: Oh man. Can you imagine getting a letter in the mail from C.S. Lewis? I pick that guy.
Guilty pleasure: I drink coffee like it’s my job. It’s my comfort food of choice. It’s like a hug from grandma for my soul.
Why I’m excited about interning with Mocha Club/fashionABLE: I love Africa. I can’t tell you how many years I’ve prayed about connecting that love with the talents I’ve been given. This internship is my chance to do that very thing. Not only that, but I’ll be doing so with an organization that I love, and with a team of great people that believe in what they are doing. That amazes me. What an opportunity!

Don’t forget that the Mochaterns have their own blog. They’ll continue to update you from their point of view all spring!

Lindsay you have many hidden talents, such modesty, lol. I look forward to reading of your experiences in Nashville! How’s the weather there? We’re getting 3-5 inches of the white stuff today, wahoo, not.
Rad! Have a blast! Hopefully you’ll get to use your saxophone skillz.
Lindsay – I hope that you are having an amazing time in Nashville. It is wonderful that you have this fantastic opportunity and Mocha Club is lucky to have you!
Wow! I spent a week in Nashville would be a great place to live.
Congrats on the internship Lindsey! I know you’ll do great! 🙂
Be aware of her love of cats, her taste for fine cheeses, and know
she LOVES showcasing her abilities during recitals.
Lindsey! So excited for your adventure there – a perfect fit indeed. Nashville will be thanking you for your contribution in their fair city 🙂
Lindsey is the MOST AMAZING young woman I know (and I don’t use that word freely!). I’ve had the pleasure of working with her on many occasions and she is as a delightful person as you’ll ever meet. She’s happy, steady, grounded in her faith, level-headed, gregarious, wildly talented, cute as a button, and just plain nice! Pick her for this internship. You won’t be sorry.
Lindsey, you are an amazing woman and no matter what you do, you do it well. I hope you have a wonderful internship in Nashville…
So happy for you Tippy! They made a great choice in you. Make sure you let them know what a great cook you are. Miss you already.
Hey Tip!! I want to get a letter from C.S. Lewis too! I guess we will just have to read his books. Love you and have fun!!!
Oh! Watch out! She really loves African food! She gets weird cravings sometimes!
Mocha Club is amazing but I think Lindsey Tipple is going to make it that much more amazing. You go amazing girl!!!!
Has she performed her talent of off the cuff song writing skills? Also, she has been known to don a wig from the Goodwill. I’ve said too much haven’t I? I’m sorry Lindsey. Bye now.

So proud of you Lindsey! God has opened many doors in your life and this is one of them! This opportunity is awesome! It’s a perfect fit for you!
Lindsey Tipple is a soul that it too incredible not to be shared with the world. Like the perfect recipe that you have to share with all your friends. She has just the right amount of sugar and spice. Nashville, you are truly blessed.
Dear Mocha Club important people,
Lindsey is the epitome of an amazing person. The fact that I spelled ‘epitome’ right speaks volumes of her character, seeing as she is the one who pointed out my spelling problem, encouraging me to get help – like only a true friend would.
I am so incredibly blessed to call Tippy my friend. Just being with her for 20 minutes can tell you that – you lucky, lucky people 😀
Lindsey has a gift that is undoubtedly from God – amazing things come from her hands, well… printer, technically.
You have such a great team member in Lindsey and I am so incredibly jealous that you have her instead of me. But I know this is right where she needs to be 🙂
SO proud of you Tip! I love you so much, honey bee.
hey good luck in Nashville.
Good luck!
Nashville is a great town! Enjoy it!
What the Mocha Club has is a true gem! Lindsey show them what you do best! We are so proud of you. Enjoy Nashville and make the most of this opportunity!

I am very happy for my Lindsey! Enjoy the new experience!
Lindsey, You are an amazing person with tremendous talent! I am sure you will make the most of this experience and in the end both you and Mocha Club will be better for it:)
Lindsey does great work. I highly recommend her. Congrats on this new adventure!
Good luck down there. I mean that. Look out!
Good luck and congratulations, Lindsey! What an exciting opportunity!! Wishing you the very best 🙂

You’ve received the best in Lindsay. Commitment, talent, enthusiasm, honesty, integrity, humility, drive, leadership, adventuresome-ness, all the things that make someone a great employee.
