I could have not imagined a more valuable experience than the one I received by interning with the Texas A&M Athletic Department. I was able to be apart of; Hard Hats for Little Heads, 2011 NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championship, 2011 Big 12 Equestrian Championship, Women’s Basketball National Champions’ Welcome Home Celebration and 2011 NCAA Women’s Golf Championship. I was presented the opportunity to be apart of all facets of these events from beginning to end. My internship overall was educational, motivating and challenging.
