Heather Shultz G.R.E.A.T. Testimonial

"The G.R.E.A.T. Program has given me the opportunity to have an internship after my first year of college, which is something I never thought would happen. It equipped me with the tools and soft skills that I needed to prepare and go on an interview, as well as to enter the workforce,  by giving me knowledge and experience very early on in my career and education." - Heather Shultz
