Yesterday marked the conclusion of my internship with Nannette Nocon a private wealth advisor with Ameriprise Financial Services, LLC. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to learn from an industry professional with 40 years of experience. The support of Nannette and her team helped me flourish. Key Takeaways: 1. Prioritizing/Time Management: The early exposure to the difference between full-time work and school became evident. There can be more freedom within one work day, whereas school has a more rigid schedule. This internship taught me how to manage my time in a professional setting, and reprioritize as new tasks were presented. 2. Heart/Passion: Seeing first hand how passionate and positive Nannette was every day was so inspiring. It is true what they say about loving what you do and its impact on a person’s success. Seeing how love and energy Nannette puts into her meetings was amazing, pushing me to put my best foot forward. 3. Always ask questions: Nannette always said that the people with the questions tend to learn more than those with the answers. With that piece of advice, I felt empowered to ask for help or clarification throughout this experience. Asking questions enabled me to improve my communication skills. As I learned to concisely convey what I was struggling with, what needed to be accomplished and when. With this in mind, I was successfully able to collaborate with other team members to get tasks completed in a timely manner. I want to end by saying a huge thank you to Nocon & Associates. I will miss you all so much, but look forward to staying connected and seeing where my future goes!

Happy National Intern Day! Internships are more than just a stepping stone; they are a way of giving back and helping aspiring professionals choose the right career path. Today, I want to reflect on the importance of internships and share my personal journey. During my undergrad time, I interned with multiple businesses in real estate, banking, construction, call center startups, and business consulting. Each experience provided me with valuable insights and helped shape my understanding of various industries. One memorable internship involved working with a CPA on a groundbreaking project for the first credit card in Japan. My role was to recreate all the financial statement projections for the first five years—a six-month endeavor that taught me invaluable lessons. While I discovered my passion for working with numbers, I realized that my true calling was to work directly with people, rather than just crunching numbers in the background. Internships provide a unique opportunity to bridge the gap between the academic world and the real world. They allow individuals to gain practical experience and set realistic expectations of what a financial planner's role entails, and vice versa. To all the interns out there, your journey is just beginning, and the experiences you gather now will shape your future in incredible ways. Embrace every opportunity, learn from every challenge, and always strive to connect your academic knowledge with real-world applications.

Great internship opportunity
