Florida Democratic Party

Community Organizer

June 2019 • Miami, FL

What I liked

Getting to know different community leaders and ways to engage with my community. I was able to create my first event to address the needs of members of the community. I learned a lot dealing with listening to personal stories and ways to address social issues present in society.

What I wish was different

The time went by pretty quickly

Advice

It was an amazing experience that allowed me to step out of my comfort zone. It was an internship that was not directly related to my current field of study but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
