The fellowship helped me understand how to position myself, communicate my ideas and pursue opportunities with greater clarity. I left with skills I could use immediately and a network I could continue learning from.

2022 Fellow
When I joined, I knew I wanted to pursue opportunities but did not know how to position myself. Through the fellowship, I strengthened my communication, built professional relationships and became more intentional about the opportunities I pursued.
