Internship Experiences

The World War II Sicily-Rome American Cemetery and Memorial site in Italy covers 77 acres, rising in a gentle slope from a broad pool with an island and cenotaph flanked by groups of Italian cypress trees.

The summer of 2020 I did an internship at the market research firm, Focus Marketing, in Naples, Italy. Despite the governmental restrictions due to COVID-19, their team was nice enough to let me join them for the summer.

In September 2020 I began my semester-long internship with the Jesuit Refugee Service’s international office here in Rome. Like many of my peers, my experience was impacted by and conducted in compliance with COVID-19.

Starting in September of 2020, I had the privilege of beginning an internship at the United States Agency for International Development which is a part of the United States Mission to the United Nations Agencies in Rome. USAID is the no.

Having an internship with Congresswoman Velazquez this summer was a unique and rewarding experience.

From the months of September to November I interned in the physical anthropology laboratory in the Pigorini Museum. I got to work with Neolithic skeletal remains that were excavated in Northern Italy and sent down to the museum to be cleaned and analyzed.

During the Spring of 2018, I had the chance to intern with the non-profit organization Nove Onlus. From the first interview, I knew that the tasks I was going to carry out were very closely related to my course of study in International Relations.

In April 2018, I began my internship at Romeing, an English-language magazine for expats and tourists in Rome. Romeing updates locals and visitors on a wide range of activities in Rome, from restaurant openings, to concerts, to museum exhibitions.

The Agriturismo Diacceroni is an organic farm in Peccioli, Italy located between Pisa, Siena, and Florence. It consists of a bed and breakfast, three farms, six ‘glamping’ tents, and one villa. Diacceroni is larger than your typical Agriturismo, hosting about 200 guests during its high season.

In the spring of 2018, I was fortunate enough to complete an internship at a company in northeast Rome. App to you is an agency that builds apps for businesses and has recently expanded into doing consultancy work in the Digital Marketing, website creation and traditional marketing fields.
