Happy Monday! Successfully completed the third week and I’ve now made it to the half-way mark of my summer experience at Junior Achievement of New York! Time is flying by this summer, to say the least. JA New York is going pretty smooth. As I mentioned in my second blog post, our primary focus is…
I have been doing a good job trying to get more followers on Pinterest, and more visits to the organization’s website. But, it’s time to take it up a notch. For weeks, I have been trying to come up with a plan to get more sponsors through Pinterest. I have been trying to think of…
Hello, again! I hope you’re well. First week interning for Junior Achievement of New York was quite nice! JA New York has a great team and I knew a few of them prior to joining the team, since I participated in a few of their programs in high school. You know, the only thing I…
I went into the summer determined to fill these three months with interesting and exciting opportunities. When I found out about the Microsoft YouthSpark Challenge for Change competition I jumped on it and submitted an application. The competition challenged young adults to share an idea for sparking change in their communities or around the world. Having…
Hello! I am excited to be sharing my summer experience! I didn’t take the traditional route of vacationing, interning at one of my favorite firms, or just taking it easy after my first year at Babson ended. I instead, bravely, embarked on a 7-week intense version of Managing in a Competitive Environment. It was quite the ride…
It’s kind of strange coming home, especially when it feels like you have never left. Before going to school last summer I had been working at my local YMCA for 2 years as a lifeguard and swim instructor. Then last summer I got a promotion as one of the summer swim coaches. When I was…
Today, after a five hour car ride from Guatemala City, we just arrived to Coban, Guatemala. The reason we are here is to launch the new Pay as You Go model for the company. In this new Business model, instead of selling solar energy systems to the customers, Quetsol will install the systems in their…
The Fourth of July is this week, and in New England, that date is kind of the unofficial start to summer. I know technically, summer started a little while ago, but here we’ll start to hit the hot weather and people start taking vacations. This is the time of year I always think about what…
Quetsol, the company I am interning with, is looking to become a non-MFI partner with Kiva. Kiva is a non profit institution that allows individuals to lend money, whether it is to micro finance institutions or for-profit and non-profit organizations around the world that have a social impact. The Kiva program is ideal for lives…
Hello all! Hope everybody’s summer is going well. School has been over for a while, and during all that time, I have been pinning and working on Pinterest for my social media internship. So far, so good. I have done a good job getting new followers, and stirring more action on the organization’s website. But,…
