Traveling Missionary

May - October 2019 • Fort Collins, CO

What I liked

I love that it taught me how to love others and serve them without thought for gain. I learned the importance of discipline of hard work and developing strong habits that I've kept with me off the mission I'm forever grateful for. The experience truly strengthen my faith.

What I wish was different

There's nothing I would change about my actual experience and would do it again! My only regret is that I encountered a few health complications while on the job that I wish I hadn't had so as to finish my full 18 months.

Advice

One big piece of advice I have would be to learn and have a testimony of the manual, Preach My Gospel, and The Book of Mormon. The more you know them, the more you'll be able to teach with ease. My other would be to make sure you're physically ready for it and trust in God in everything you do, even in the little things. If you have to two main things, you'll be ten times more prepared.

Project Management Intern

April - September 2019 • Riverton, UT

What I liked

I loved the spiritual environment and my coworkers. I was one of only two interns, the rest of my coworkers were full-time employees. Because of this, I felt more like an employee rather than an intern. I was also given many experiences to grow my education and lead others. I have come out of this experience a better manager than I was before, as well as a better team member.

What I wish was different

Halfway through my internship my manager changed. It was a disorienting experience both for him and for me, and it was hard to deal with the change of management structure. Overall, it was a good experience to gain from, but it was hard at the time.

Advice

Don't be afraid to propose change. Sometimes since everyone is used to the way that things are working, change won't be easy, but the benefit of change is often a good thing.

I had an incredible experience as I was able to see people feel the goodness that exists in God. There is a power found within the Gospel as found within The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and I loved the chance I had to work as a volunteer and come closer to my Savior through helping others do the same. I loved seeing drug or alcohol addicts begin to see the light as they learned about their Savior. I loved the chance to teach and to expand my teaching abilities.
