Adrianna's final thoughts on her internship: This experience has allowed me to actually apply what I am learning in the classroom to real life situations. In my coursework at SCU, I have learned how to analyze data, effectively communicate professionally, manage projects, etc. SCU gave me the basic skills needed to do these things but having an opportunity to actually apply these skills to my work at the OED office has given me insight into my own working style and helped me to work on both my strengths and weaknesses. SCU gave me the foundation I needed to connect and serve the greater community we live in. The greatest part of this experience was having a wonderful manager. Throughout the past 9 months, l my supervisor has helped me to grow both professionally and personally. This experience has given me a lifelong mentor!
