Internship Spotlight: Ava Black
What advice would you give other SDS students about the internship search or internship experience?
"Don't be afraid to apply for different things and pursue different interests. This internship started over the summer, and is now something that I am currently able to do part-time throughout the school year. I have made connections in the industry and have gained a lot of knowledge over this past year, and this never would've happened if I didn't take the leap and apply my first-year spring."
