"My time in Washington D.C. with NMSHSA was short, but the growth I experienced, both professionally and personally, will stay with me for years to come. This internship not only sharpened my skills, but also strengthened my confidence as a leader, advocate, and future changemaker. The real-world application of my Political Science education has deepened my understanding of civic engagement and policy. As I move forward in my professional journey, I carry with me the principle of “paying it forward.” To future interns who may one day walk this same path: lead with authenticity in every application, interview, and conversation. Your story and purpose is your power, and that’s what will set you apart."
