    This summer I interned at NBC for MSNBC Chief Washington Correspondent Norah O'Donnell. It was hands down the best internship experience I've ever had - I got to do everything from researching her stories and helping with her scripts to going to on-location shoots, helping produce segments, and I even got to help Norah report from the Sonia Sotomayor Senate hearings. Definitely a great look at the production side of broadcast journalism and a very beneficial networking opportunity to open doors for a future career in the media!

    For nine days in July, I will be an ASA (Alumni Section Assistant) at the Hugh O'Brian Youth (HOBY) World Leadership Congress (WLC).

It is held at GW and we'll be living in Thurston for a week and a half. We do a lot of really amazing activities, leader building, personal growth, and empowerment exercises, and it is an amazing experience for the sophomores. As a counselor, I will be in charge of a section of students, along with my Section Leader, and we have the task to run the Amazing Race activity, among other responsibilities.
