My internship helped me make progress and improve upon my product management, communication and team-working skills
As a minority and first-generation student there were so many support services to take advantage of and so many people I could connect with and relate to.
The Career Center helped me choose my majors and helped me with interviews and networking. I received multiple interviews and/or offers for internships, including two "Big 4" public accounting firms.
