This summer will be unforgettable. As I leave, I will cherish every memory I made with the NMSHSA, my cohort, my placement and DC overall. But most importantly I will make sure that I follow my inspirations and return to the nation's capital.

Interning in DC has sparked my interest in political lobbying and maybe even running for office. I'm grateful to my NMSHSA family for this opportunity to grow and will always cherish memories like scootering around DC and visiting NYC.
