“I’m the kind of person where if there’s a food platter with 10 hors d’oeuvres, I’m going to sample all of them cause I like to try everything. Likewise, I’ve been sinking my teeth in a whole variety of tasks here at AP, from photo editing and archiving to website building, all the way over to writing HTML, and back to handling videos and podcasts. Although I’ve tasted most of the samples on the platter, I still have fundraising and maybe even social media to sample before I finish my work for the summer. It’s been tasty.“I have never worked a desk job in an office before, but working at AP has been an easy shift and great exposure to the inner workings of a non-profit and human rights issues. For the past couple years, I have known that I will dedicate my life to human rights, and I couldn’t be happier to start off my career here. The office is small, both in staff and space, which I have loved since it fosters teamwork and communication. That being said, our summer 2016 team has gotten very close, both in the office and during activities like canoeing, and we have lots of fun together. It’s been a great experience so far!”
