Summary

As a former music student who began a Master’s program in Management this fall, I am actively seeking a summer internship in the Gainesville area. I bring strong communication skills, comfort working with diverse populations, including older adults, and solid computer skills. As this is my first experience in a professional business setting outside of music, I am highly motivated, collaborative, and eager to gain hands-on experience in business, management, and sales. I am dependable, engaged, and excited to learn in a fast-paced, real-world environment.
