Last week I ended my Summer Internship at Nimbus Therapeutics. It was an amazing opportunity to work alongside the Contracts Department learning the basics of contract negotiations and Intellectual Property protections in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. As a virtual biotech company Nimbus has no on-site labs. Instead the company outsources lab work to Contract Research Organizations (CROs), making the Contracts team a core function of research and discovery at Nimbus. My main project this summer was conducting a comprehensive audit of Nimbus' two lead drug discovery development programs. Tasked with finding discrepancies and outdated legal language, I reviewed more than 1200 contracts with over 200 companies this summer. Attention to detail was an important skill for this role. Having no prior experience in contract or legal work, Nimbus provided me a great deal of education and knowledge in contracts as well as an unforgettable ten week Internship experience. Included in the Internship curriculum were educational seminars on drug and pharmaceutical development, personal lunches with some of the most experienced individuals in biotech, and a number of social outings focused on team development and career success. Ultimately I couldn't have asked for a better experience this summer as I got to work alongside some of the best and brightest in Boston biotech. Thank you to my manager Jeanne Martell as well as the rest of the contracts team, Ralph Swanson, Alison Plumeau, and Mel Longan, it was a pleasure getting to learn from individuals possessing such a serious dedication to their work and professionalism. A special thank you to Fu-Shan Kuo for being my Nimbus Guide and allowing me to make the most out of my time at Nimbus, along with providing me invaluable advice for the future. There are plenty more people to thank for this opportunity including the Nimbus People team and Project Onramp, but the list goes on. I can't wait to see what the future holds for both Nimbus and myself as we part ways and continue on our developmental journeys.

I recently completed my internship at Nimbus Therapeutics as an Accounting Intern! Coming in, I had no prior accounting experience, just a lot of curiosity and a strong desire to learn what it really means to be an accountant. This opportunity gave me hands-on experience with general ledger management, data filing, financial statements, and reconciling accounts. One of the most valuable skills I developed was mastering reconciliation. The ability to meticulously compare records and resolve discrepancies was crucial in ensuring accuracy and integrity in financial reporting. Beyond the technical skills, what l enjoyed most was the chance to connect with so many people across different departments. The industry talks, and meetings with my manager and the accounting team were truly insightful. This internship was a fantastic learning experience, and I'm grateful to my manager Martin Boyle, CPA along with Sabrina Gentilucci, Matt Durso, the finance team , all the #nimbi , Project Onramp and Junior Achievement of Greater Boston for the opportunity to grow both professionally and personally.

As my summer internship as a People and Communication Intern at Nimbus Therapeutics comes to a close, I’m filled with gratitude and excitement for what lies ahead. This summer, I led the redesign of important employee resources and focused on initiatives to improve workplace culture and internal communication. In addition, I developed strategies for our website, social media campaigns, and company events. These experiences and many more have helped me grasp how strategic communication is critical to organizational success and maintaining an excellent work environment. I'm pleased to announce that I will be continuing my career with Nimbus as an Office Administrator! I'm excited to get additional experience and keep working alongside the team in advancing our initiatives and contributing to our wonderful workplace. As I begin this new role, I'm excited about the future and eager to take on new challenges with such a brilliant team by my side. A special thank you to my mentors, Cindy Fung and Jolyne Woart, for their invaluable guidance and support throughout this journey. I want to also thank Matt Durso, Samantha Webb, and Erin Cowhig on the People Team for their openness in sharing their experience and expertise. Thank you to all #Nimbi and Project Onramp for making this internship possible. 😊

This summer, I had the incredible opportunity to intern at Nimbus Therapeutics, where I had the privilege to work alongside the IT team on various projects. I gained insights into the biotech industry while enhancing my technical skills in Python, especially the crucial role IT plays in connecting data through AWS and ensuring security in such a confidentiality-driven field. One of the highlights of my time at Nimbus was collaborating with the Chemistry and Biology teams. I learned so much about these areas which I never would have encountered otherwise. I’m so grateful to have been able to meet so many wonderful people at Nimbus and to hear their stories, from academic journeys to experiences getting into this industry. I want to give a heartfelt thank you to James Carter, Matthew Medina, Leela Sriram Dodda and the Comp Chem Team, as well as Project Onramp for helping get this opportunity, and of course the team at Nimbus Therapeutics for making this experience truly unforgettable!
