Sony Music Group Welcomes the Fourth Cohort of SMG Impact Fellows

This Summer, Sony Music Group (SMG) is welcoming the fourth cohort of the SMG Impact Fellows Program. In 2021, the program launched as a partnership with the 4A’s Multicultural Advertising Intern Program (MAIP); fellows from subsequent cohorts have also come to SMG from American Indigenous Business Leaders (AIBL), Lime Connect, Out for Undergrad (O4U), and Scholarships Plus. These partners allow us to bolster our efforts to recruit, develop, and retain diverse entry-level talent.   

This year’s cohort is comprised of five fellows working primarily at The Orchard on various teams such as Brand Marketing, Digital College Marketing, Marketing, Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion, and Global Artist & Label Services.  

Welcome to the team, 2024 Impact Fellows: 

Arianna Watkins 
Video Services, The Orchard 

Edward Williams Jr. 
Digital & College Marketing, The Orchard 

Elizabeth Briese 
Global Artist & Label Services, The Orchard

Elyza Navarro 
Digital Marketing, Essential Worship (Provident Entertainment) 

Trinity Hunter 
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, Sony Music Group

The Office of DE&I launched the Impact Fellows program to provide college students from underrepresented communities the unique opportunity to learn about and experience the music industry during a three-month summer fellowship, supplemented by professional development opportunities and programming from their host organizations.   

This year, Fellows are gleaning insights from their internship experiences in our Nashville and New York City Offices. Fellows also benefit from participating in internal DE&I discussions, meet & greets with senior leaders, participating in the intern showcase, and attending exclusive cohort-tailored programming.
