- What new appreciations did you develop while working as an intern? Why? I have gained appreciation for doctors as well as attorneys and all the other employees it takes to run your own firm. Because I see how hard they work for their patients and or clients to better the lives of others. I also appreciate the paralegals because they do a lot of work to make sure everything for a certain case is taken care of.
- What qualities or characteristics did you see in the people around you that you want to develop in yourself? Why? Time management, I feel I have improved a lot during my internship. But I would love to learn how to manage my time as well as Marianne. She is absolutely amazing at it! Another one would be how to become more independent, I feel I am very mature for my age but maybe not quite ready to be independent. I feel that I need guidance for a lot of the decisions I make in life. Lastly would be learn how to be nice to people even though they are mean to you. Because either like you or hate you, but I want to learn to be able to be nice to the people who may not like you or are rude to you because it is very hard.
- How did interpersonal relationships and/or collaboration at work influence your understanding of life outside of high school? For some reason I was able to bond very quickly with everyone in the office and I also created a very strong bond with my mentor, Marianne. I feel that when I had something hard I was facing or needed help with something they always have feedback. This really helped me understand how important relationships and connections are in life especially with the people you work with. Building strong relationships with each and everyone of them has helped me with a lot of other things as well.
