The Think Alive Foundation; Amherst, MA

At the Think Alive Foundation my I developed, planned, organized and implemented a preliminary marketing strategy. I also oversaw infrastructure improvements and developments. Over the course of the placement there were no changes in the primary job responsibilities.


As a whole i would rate this placement as a very good place to intern for. I would recommend it to other students since it was a great ecperuence and i felt as thoughi made a difference in a small organization. If i could change one thing about this internship i would make the struckture of Think Alive's involvement a little smoother.


My advice for other students is to take risks, and do something you dont otherwise think you would do!
