STATEHOUSE (Feb. 16, 2018) — A Center Grove High School graduate is gaining experience as an intern with State Rep. Dave Frizzell (R-Indianapolis) and his fellow members of the House of Representatives during the 2018 legislative session. 

Sam Wright, a resident of Greenwood, is the son of Jeff and Sandy Wright. He is a junior at Indiana University-Purdue University of Indianapolis working toward a bachelor’s degree in communications and a minor in travel and tourism management. 

As an intern in the House Majority Communications Office, Wright helps draft press releases, create legislative handouts and assist with media relations.

Each year, the House of Representatives offers paid internship opportunities to college students, law-school students, graduate students and recent college graduates for the duration of each legislative session. 

“It is great to see young people from our community getting involved in the legislative process,” Frizzell said. “Interns like Sam are crucial during session because they perform essential tasks to keep things moving forward. This internship is a unique opportunity to gain valuable experience, and I encourage every college student to consider this opportunity in future sessions.”
