"We thought that we would teach them about advertising. However, we've learned from them as well. Their tenacity to rise above socioeconomic challenges, family pressures and awkward teen years has shown me that anything is truly possible." -Tish Fletcher, 72andSunny Brand Manager
“I’ve been particularly impressed with how our intern is creating opportunities for himself during his internship. He has been showing up to work early and seeking connections in the office above and beyond what has been assigned to them. His professional manner and dress are also right on. ” – Heidi Hampton, Gensler Architecture, Associate
“I’m most proud of working on developing the marketing campaign for our new gaming router. I'm literally the target audience for our new router, so I can provide valuable input. “- Jeremy Dauer, Da Vinci Extension student and Belkin International intern
