Good Afternoon. My name is Allison Evans, and I attend the City of Angels Independent Studies School. I’m a senior and recently joined an internship program at UCLA. I was introduced to this Internship by an administrator at City of Angels, Donal Kennedy. Donal encouraged me to apply and not miss this huge opportunity. Additionally, Donal gave wise feedback on my video, which was the key factor in my entry into the internship. Thank you for the excellence that I encountered throughout the week in this internship. Throughout the first three days, my cohort had rotations around the Ronald Reagan Medical Center and learned about careers in Analytics, Radiology, and Pathology. Overall, we had a live view of these various allied health careers. Toward the end of the week of the internship, we had multiple lectures at the David Geffen School Of Medicine. One of the lectures was from an actual professor who taught the Phlebotomy Training program at the School of Medicine. This Internship helped me learn about the allied health careers that are urgently needed today and new ways of working with others. As of now, I completed the Internship and can say I’m an alumnus, and it wouldn’t have been possible without Donal’s encouragement and the excellence of the management staff I met in the Internship. I deeply enjoyed this experience and will never take it for granted, and I am now interested in becoming a Phlebotomist Technician the program offers scholarships for training which I am looking forward to after high school. Towards the end of the program, I was told that there were only 65 students accepted out of 500 plus applications, and to be accepted is a true reminder that so many doors can be opened if I continue to dedicate my mind to greatness and surround myself with support like the kind Donal Kennedy gave. Overall, this Internship exposed me to many careers that I could be a part of soon, which I will keep with me on my journey to success!
