Priya T. has worked with Economic Growth Business Incubator (EGBI) this summer. She got into the program by applying with the City of Austin. Her plan after the internship is to keep attending high school, finish off her senior year, and start exploring college options. Her most favorite activity was filming videos with Heidi.
Her expectation coming into the internship was that she was going to learn a lot about business. Some experiences she learned at EGBI while working there are how to make social media content with branding and how to format things in a professional way.
Her personal interests about business is that she sells her own clothes and things she makes and has a passion for being a salesperson. Something she would say to anyone else starting an internship at EGBI is to have fun with the people you meet and form friendships & connections.
