What aspect of your fellowship has been most rewarding?
One of the most rewarding aspects has been seeing my work have a tangible, real-world impact. It is amazing to think that something I built is now being used by real businesses and City employees. I’ve also really valued the mentorship and autonomy I’ve received while executing my project. My supervisor gave me the space to lead while still being available for support, which helped me grow more confident in my problem-solving and professional communication skills.
