Joseph's final thoughts on his internship: The most beneficial aspect for me was learning how to effectively communicate my own knowledge to people who haven't developed the fundamental understandings in specific areas I have been able to throughout my education and life in general. These students come from a different background than myself and haven't been exposed to everything I have experienced, and this fellowship has allowed me to understand that I shouldn't have any assumptions about what others may know, This will help me in the working world when I interact with colleagues and clients.
