Having an elevator speech has been extremely helpful as I network and navigate my way through DC. Although at first it was intimidating I have found my confidence through it and it has allowed me to see the value in my studies/experiences and gave me a clear vision of who I want to become.

I am ready to be everything I’ve ever dreamed of being. These are the types of people I want to be surrounded by; I already love the environment I’m in. This is something I never thought I’d experience and I’m so thankful that I’m living this moment.

As my first week in D.C. comes to an end, I reflect on the work that it took to get here and the lifelong partnerships that will form after this summer. This city truly has so much to offer, and I hope to at least dent most of it by the time this internship ends.

The first week of work and an insight into what I have been working on. I learned about the Hershey Lawsuit being dismissed and did a brief search on cocoa bean harvesting.
