It's about that time: end-of-internship recap post :) But this one's a special one! This summer was my last undergraduate internship, and I felt obliged to yap a little more on this post. Before that though, I'd like to thank Northrop Grumman for providing me with another amazing internship experience this summer! I wasn't planning on returning this year, but I don't have a single regret doing so. As expected, the Colorado weather was way nicer than Texas, and I met (and reunited with) some amazing people who made this summer great. Shout-out to Juliet Corning, Monica Ramos-Peterson, MBA, Marcus B., and May Schulte for all the support with my work and insights on my future career! And of course, thank you to Brian Herrera, Nessa McWeeney, Jamliv Dejo Lopez, and Joselyn Zamora for your friendship; you guys were the main reason this summer was so great :) I don't really know who's going to read this post, but I do have some advice. - I know it's said a lot, but take the opportunity to connect with people and learn from them! Some of the conversations I've had with people, whether it be leadership, managers, engineers, or other interns, have changed my outlook on my future. You may think you have everything figured out, but honestly, I've probably thought the same thing 10+ times throughout my undergraduate degree and been proven wrong every time. - Travel! This may resonate more or less depending on who you are, but as someone who's lived in the same area my whole life, taking the opportunity to travel out-of-state really broadened my horizons! Getting to live by yourself in a completely new environment taught me a lot, and I'd recommend it to anyone. If you can, don't close your options to working locally; be open and excited to explore! It's been a great summer, and if there was one thing I would recommend to anyone reading this, it would be to make the most out of your experiences—be it an internship, co-op, full-time position, or research. Make the most out of your work, but most importantly, the people you get to meet!
