Through this paid internship opportunity, they provide valuable feedback and insight about their experiences with career readiness education.

My dream job is to be a criminal defense lawyer or a sports injury defense lawyer. There are so many wrongfully convicted people who are innocent and so many athletes who get cheated out of getting the proper medical care when it is needed. I want to be the one to help them.

Grade: Graduate

 I chose the Digital Design pathway because it sounded interesting and most beneficial for the career I’m currently exploring. In the modern world, digital everything is becoming the norm, meaning that having at least a base knowledge will be very helpful. Additionally, fundraising will be a big part of the career I wish to pursue, so being able to create visually pleasing presentations and designs will be very helpful.
