Youth Department Communications Intern

February 2019 • Bristol, RI

“I enjoyed how this experience gave me the opportunity to work on many creative projects and publish stories about the happenings within the organization. I was also given the freedom from my supervisors to come up with an editorial agenda through their guidance which allowed me to plan out and publish projects. ”

Project Management Intern

May 2018 • Bristol, RI

“I had an amazing summer working at US Sailing. I learned so much, and was able to work hands on with many different departments. I was able to work independently, and as well within groups. My thoughts and ideas were valued each day I went to work. I loved how understanding my boss was, and allowing me to have a semi-flexible schedule. I was able to grow a lot in my internship over the summer, and I have been able to continue the experience into my Fall Semester. ”
