I work on campus as a Presidential Ambassador. My boss, Bird Brown, is a board member and helped connect me with ConnectAbility.
So far, interning with ConnectAbility has been absolutely amazing! One of my most favorite parts is the connections I have made with everyone in the organization. ConnectAbility has also given me valuable exposure to a non-profit organization that works to make everyone in the community feel valued, empowered, and included.
My goal in life is to be able to help others. One of the ways I hope to do this is by advocating and helping everyone feel valued and included. ConnectAbility has a similar bottom line, so being able to see how they do this so well is invaluable experience to me. Through ConnectAbility I am also making lasting relationships and connections that may help me one day down the road.
