The final opportunity given to me during my time at the University YMCA was the Building Bridges Internship. It seemed too good to be true because it was an internship that allowed me to work with underrepresented students, create a program for local students to benefit from, and learn what it means to work in a part of public health. Then we had the opportunity to participate in a similar program in O‘ahu, Hawai‘i.

Thanks to this internship, I have gained confidence in myself, lifelong connections, and memories I will cherish forever. Working with the high school students in Atherton YMCA’s college camp, in partnership with the YES Project, changed my life. Working with students who come from different backgrounds than me and watching them grow to trust me and believe they are capable of going to college made me extremely proud. I knew I had done my best to represent my love for higher education when, on the last day, a student came up to me and asked, “What do you study in college?” I answered, “I was doing engineering, but I’m switching to public health.” I said it with little confidence because I wasn’t sure if I was making the best decision. The student then said, “I know you’ll do good because you did a great job working with us.” Those words have stayed with me ever since, and I embarrassingly but relievingly cried after that interaction.
