My name is Joe Morris founding artist of www.ngaugeinc.com Our company is called NGAUGEinc. What we are is a new creative agency that builds brands through Art and Human Spirit. We are currently working with the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) and produce the official Art for the UFC as well as creating a new t-shirt line for the biggest growing sport in the world MMA. We didn’t just kick the door down at the UFC we blew them away.

Currently we need a web design intern to work on the NGAUGE website that can build a site from the ground up and make it something we can easily update ourselves. We have a ton of press coming in and need someone asap. We are a new company but to have UFC as our first client is huge. We are also doing work for Bruce Lee Enterprises. I did a painting for Shannon Lee the daughter of the man himself and now look to do work with Tapout the biggest MMA clothing brand in the world. We are also in talks with NCAA basketball, NHL, and Major League Baseball.

NGAUGEinc is my new thing and need some hand picked interns to help turn the corner. Again this is a big opportunity for those that want to jump into a market like UFC that is turning the sporting world on it’s head. For those students that have a passion for the entertainment and sports world this is their ticket in.

I need a few students that are at the top of their class especially a know-it-all do-it-all web guy.
