madi burke

CO CEO. Business Development. College INTERN

Madi Burke came highly recommended by none other than the prominent & distinguished Orthopedic Surgeon & Founder of Atlanta Orthopedic Institute, Dr. Raj Pandya. Madi is currently enrolled as a sophomore at The University of Alabama, majoring in Fashion Merchandising with a minor in Business.

”I am most excited to be able to get to work on brand advertising and see that come to life at the events. Getting to see the work the whole CityBox team has worked so hard for pay off will be the best reward.”

Her goal while working at CityBox Daily is to build connections with not only other people throughout the CityBox team, but as well as networking with other companies.

During her free time, outside of work and school, she loves to stay active while getting to spend time with friends and family. Whether it is going into the cheer gym with my teammates, running with her dad, or going on the lake with her family.

Cheering at Alabama, being a part of a sorority, and keeping school as well as & the new internship balanced, will not be easy, but Madi is excited for this new chapter and all of the amazing opportunities that will come with it.

We are ecstatic to welcome Madi to CityBox!
