He played a huge role in helping me build my network and understand the paths others took to succeed. He introduced me to people who were in similar situations as me, which gave me real examples of the steps they followed to land their internships. Hearing their stories and advice helped me map out my own journey and feel more confident in the process. Because of his connections, guidance, and belief in me, I was ultimately able to secure my own internship. I’m truly grateful for everything he did to open those doors for me.
