2020 Student Internships

During my internship I wanted to examine which role within UX I want to pursue in my career post graduation. While I have a lot of experience broadly in the work force, I had never worked at a large technology focused company, so I wanted to follow my curiosities and notice what elements I liked and disliked about my job so I could learn my preferences which will inform my job search.
