Reviews

Operations Intern

May 2018 - August 2018 Louisville, KY
“I loved the variety of projects that I got to work on with Anchal and the autonomy I was given with them. In such a small office, it was great to share my own creativity, ideas, and experiences to enhance the company’s mission. My favorite projects involved designing web page mock-ups in more or less my personal vision and building the published page after collaborating with the rest of the office. ”
