🎉 Last Friday marked the end of my summer internship at Vytalogy Wellness, highlighted by the incredible 600th day OSHA celebration at the Haslet site! This journey has been transformative, filled with significant learning and growth, thanks to the great support from Robert Machado, Chief Supply Chain Officer, Steeve Havel, Director of Operations, my encouraging supervisor Noe Briceno, and all my beloved colleagues. *** During my time here, I deeply engaged with key aspects of lean manufacturing and inventory management: 1. Enhanced #leanmanufacturing by streamlining operations, achieving reduction in operational variances through lot size standardization. 2. Drove #continuousimprovement in inventory management, cutting material over-usage and synchronizing replenishment with production demands. 3. Embraced the principle that #ZeroIsImpossible, learning the critical role of safety and proactive risk management in achieving operational excellence. I deeply appreciate the knowledge gained and the relationships built during this time. I am eager to leverage these experiences to further advance my career in supply chain management. #LifeatVytalogyWellness

So many opportunities to grow in a caring and innovative culture.

One more day until my Lyft internship is complete! So, I want to share a few reflections. Being the first in my family to achieve several post-secondary educational milestones has often felt like a choose-your-own-adventure storybook. And, the majority of times, I have had no idea what I was doing. However, I’ve always been driven by my personal mission and values to do good. Two years ago, I began asking myself what I wanted to do after my PhD and stumbled upon UX research. With my 10+ years of research experience, I grew curious as to how I could transfer my skills into user experience and tech products. As a medical/sociocultural anthropologist, it is undeniable how tech is part of our culture and touches every part of our lives in every single way. Like the researcher that I am, I learned more about UXR and grew my UXR network (s/o to the many people that shared 30 mins of their time with me!) Fast forward to today and I can honestly say that these past twelve weeks as the only UXR Lyft intern have been transformative for my UX research experience. What once was theory, became practice. I was able to: -conduct end-to-end research -host research read-outs with stakeholders -practice multiple research methods And so much more! I complete my Lyft internship with gratitude to have collaborated with so many wonderful people doing incredible work. Many many many thanks to Sabrina Papazian, PhD, Meghan Wenzel, Anne Cormia, Rafae Aziz, Artin Yip, and so many others who have shaped my Lyftern experience. I hope my feature is helpful to other grad students in the social sciences interested in industry careers. Now to focus on finishing this dissertation! #Lyft #UXR #intern #UXRinternship #PhD

Do you ever note the brand of a semi-truck trailer on the interstate? After spending an incredible summer as a finance intern at Wabash, I can't help but look for their products while driving on the road. Throughout my 12-week role, three experiences greatly shaped my internship. 1. The strength of supportiveness: Whether it was the company speak or the unique challenges of the transportation industry, my first few weeks were an overwhelming flow of information. While I did my best to intake as much as possible, my adaption to the company was only possible due to the support of my manager, Nisar Ahmed, and mentor Payton Duncan. Working with them taught me the value of asking questions, no matter how simple. Without this, I would've missed out on the invaluable mentorship I was fortunate to experience this summer. 2. The depth of diversity: Organizations are often segmented, making it difficult to collaborate with other disciplines. Fortunately, Wabash's culture placed a huge emphasis on cross-functionality. Over the summer, I had the unique privilege to conduct over 51 one-on-one meetings with professionals ranging from financial analysts to VPs of manufacturing. Wabash's emphasis on creating remarkable, collaborative teams allowed me to gain invaluable advice whether it was on my projects or my professional future. Working in this environment drove home the value of diverse backgrounds and a cross-functional culture. 3. The power of presentation: One of the primary challenges I faced this summer was telling the story behind my work. When presenting data, I would focus on the results, without diving into the underlying factors and giving a comprehensive overview. Throughout the summer, my manager gave up many hours to teach me how to present information effectively and create a compelling story behind the data I gathered. I'm truly grateful for this lesson, as I experienced firsthand the power an impactful, polished story has on your audience. This summer built me in ways I would've never imagined. Whether it was learning the business with my team, volunteering with my fellow interns, or attending lunch and learns with senior executives, my rich internship experience wouldn't have been possible without the incredible people at Wabash who poured into me. I want to give a huge thanks to Kyle Richmann, Laura Killian, and Hannah Mummert for creating this incredible program. Next time you pass a semi-truck on the road, look out for the Wabash logo!
