“I really enjoyed my experience because it allowed me to try a variety of roles early in my career, which was perfect, as I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted to do after college. I was given unique leadership, networking and growth opportunities that helped me gain confidence and take ownership of my work.”
– Kimberly Chong, 2020 ELP participant
