Blue Cross Blue Shield – Fall 2019
Kessler Foundation Leadership Initiative for Students with
Disabilities Scholarship – Spring 2019
Blue Cross Blue Shield made The Washington, D.C. experience possible for me.
Having the opportunity to intern in the U.S. House of Representatives during a
significant period in United States history is an experience I am incredibly grateful
for and is one that I will not soon forget. The friends I have made and the skills I
have developed as a result of this academic internship opportunity are a credit to
BCBS and its vast support network.
Through my internship, I had the opportunity to attend an oral argument at the
Supreme Court. Only in D.C. can you witness both the ins and outs of where some
of the biggest court decisions in the country are made. Sitting outside SCOTUS in
line with almost 100 other people before the sunrise was truly something I cannot
experience anywhere else. I will never forget that day or the memories I have made
while at The Washington Center.
This experience allowed me to participate in an internship that furthered my
career interests and opportunities. Thanks to my internship, I was able to meet
well-established people within my field of interest. I also had the opportunity to
interact with other students in similar situations as myself.
