Reflecting on my time as an intern, I feel so fortunate to have had this experience. Working on creating visuals for the reports was both challenging and rewarding. Knowing that the graphs helped parents better understand their child’s progress makes the effort I put into each detail even more meaningful. I also want to thank you personally for your unwavering support and mentorship throughout my internship. Your guidance and encouragement helped me grow in ways I couldn’t have anticipated. You not only provided me with valuable skills in grant writing, data presentation, and engagement but also demonstrated how passion and dedication can drive impactful work. Your mentorship was invaluable, and I feel like I’ve grown tremendously from this experience. I am incredibly grateful for the trust you placed in me and for the insights you shared along the way.
