I enjoyed the remote ability of this internship. It allowed me to be around my family and friends, while still being able to work. I enjoyed all of my co-workers who made OCHIN feel like home and gladly answered all of my questions.
What I wish was different
I wish there were in-person elements to the company so I could sometimes interact face-to-face.
Advice
Network! Do not feel constrained to only interact with the people you directly work with. Be curious and get to know people and what they do.

What I liked
Working for a company doing such good things for the nation's health center was a first-rate experience in what it means to be engaged in equity work on a daily basis. I loved that it was a good company that is constantly working on how it can do better. The staff were incredibly personable and amazing mentors.

Advice
Always ask questions, of everyone around you. Even if it seems like they don't have the job you're looking for you still might learn something valuable from them or learn about a job you never knew existed!
