Colleen Hotchkiss ‘11, Spanish major
Internship: "Empowering Women and Working for Gender Equality in Matagalpa, Nicaragua"
"Although I was very self-directed all summer, I was in no way isolated and was able to form friendships with the other women at Venancia, and by the end of the summer really feel a part of the group. This experience definitely has made me more confident in my ability to integrate myself into a work environment fairly quickly and find my niche in order to accomplish what needed to be accomplished."
