As I wrap up my summer internship at Reingold, Inc., I find myself reflecting on the incredible journey I've had, right from this very desk. It’s more than just a workspace—it's where I learned, grew, and made lasting connections with some truly amazing people. 💫
🔹 Key Highlights:
1. Collaborated on impactful projects like the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Mental Health website, the Phoenix Government website, and a leading children’s cancer research website, where I focused on improving user experiences.
2. Engaged in continuous learning, from attending workshops to collaborating on various tasks, deepening my understanding of content strategy and UX design.
3. Emphasized the importance of coffee chats, using them as an opportunity to build relationships, gain insights, and foster a collaborative work environment.
4. Utilized innovative thinking and problem-solving skills to tackle challenges, contributing to the success of projects.
📚 What I Learned:
1. How to leverage data and technology to drive business solutions and meet client needs & expectations, ensuring our work not only met but exceeded goals.
2. The importance of balancing business and client needs – a key takeaway that guided every decision I made during my projects.
3. Never shy away from asking questions – It’s crucial to seek clarity and understand every aspect of a project to deliver the best possible outcome.
But what made this experience truly special were the people I worked with. A huge thank you to Anna M. for being the best mentor, to my intern buddy Yonas Samuel for always being there for a quick chat or advice, and to my intern coordinators Kelly Valdes and Kaitlyn McCarthy for guiding me through this journey. And of course, a big thank you to the entire Digital Experience team and everyone else I’ve collaborated with—I couldn’t have asked for a better group of people to learn from. 💖
This desk may be empty now, but it holds so many memories of hard work, learning, and growth. As I move forward, I carry with me the skills and lessons learned, excited for what’s next. 🙌
