As you’ve probably heard me talk about, I’ll be going to Madrid in June for an internship, and I am beyond excited! This trip means so much to me because I will be able to put everything I’ve learned to use. Beyond just exploring a new place and having fun, I chose to go to Madrid because I was given the opportunity to gain so much experience and knowledge. My passion for helping others and wanting to make a remarkable change in a child’s life made me interested in this program. While abroad I will be working as a social worker helping children and families.

On this trip I expect to grow, be challenged, and learn so much about myself. But I can’t do it alone! There are many ways you can contribute to my goal. This trip is the best real-world experience I could ask for. It is a way for me to gain new perspective, push myself to try something new, and pursue what could possibly be a future job. I know I’ve made it to where I am today because of the amazing people in my life such as yourself, and I hope you will join me in this next step.
