What are some skills/competencies (NACE) that you developed during your internship?
My communication skills in a remote environment definitely improved as I had to learn to communicate effectively
over email and on the phone. I think that my teamwork skills in a professional environment also improved as I
worked with many people within Care for the Homeless along with outside companies.
How does this experience connect to your future career goals?
This experience gave me insight into the operations side of healthcare. While I would ultimately like to work in a
clinical setting, I think it was important to also learn about what happens behind the scenes.
What advice would you give to other Holy Cross students?
I would definitely recommend using your Holy Cross connections! My supervisor, Ronald Lawson, was a great
mentor and it was really interesting to hear about his academic and extracurricular involvement at Holy Cross and
how he began his career.
