As everything I have done this summer is coming to an end, I have to think about what I have accomplished and how I feel about it.<\/p>\n
-Being an advocate for my community.- This is something that I know I am going to continue to do. I hope that I continue to fight for the people who are here. These are the people that have gone through a lot, and continue to go through a lot in an underrepresented city.<\/p>\n
-Learning how to establish dominance in a meeting.- Working at a non-profit, being young, and saying the “intern” tends to give big companies the thought that comments are not important. But with the help of all the amazing people I work with, I’ve learned that my voice does count. Once they learn how invested and passionate I am about my project, they can’t count me out.<\/p>\n
