Advice for your internship.

Don’t be afraid to ask for help: at the beginning I was a bit lost but I was fortunate enough to have a team that was willing to go the extra mile for me.

Be open to possibilities: this is not what I imagined I was going to be doing this summer but this internship has made me think about the future in a very different way.

Open as many doors as you can then go with what you think will make you happier and will get you out of your comfort zone.
