Last summer I worked in a small company called Gadra Enterprises in St. Catherine's, Ontario as a mechanical engineer intern. I learned a lot on how an engineer works through problems by finding a solution, reading schematics, making schematics, making prototypes and diagnosing mechanical issues. I also learned some on managing a company, being an entrepreneur and making good relations with employees as wells as costumers.
