Accomplishments

My greatest accomplishment was facilitating our winter grief support group for elementary-aged children. I loved seeing the children open up about their feelings and experiences with loss and life.

What advice would you give?

Find an internship in something that interests you, but also realize you're not an expert in anything yet so be open to trying something new, even if it intimidates you.
