Reflections From Our Summer Intern

​I am Margar and I am a St. Lawrence University student majoring in Statistics. My main academic interests are Economics and Statistics and I am enthusiastic about playing badminton. I have been a 10-week SLU PIC intern in Deep Root Center. I focused on building three databases from scratch and conducting some data, statistical and financial analysis for the organization and helped to achieve day to day objectives. Working at DRC has been an interesting journey for me as I learned a great deal and developed personally and professionally. 

As an intern, I was delighted to develop general, volunteer, and summer program membership databases, because in the long term they will help center to save time and energy during registrations and will provide a huge amount of data for future analysis.

My involvement in DRC helped me understand how important it is to have dedicated individuals fueled by passion pursuing their goals. In DRC, we promote self-directed learning and proactive attitude towards taking initiative to advance in various areas of knowledge. I wish further development of DRC and greater achievements in future. Thank you for having me.

*Tomorrow we say goodbye to Margar, who has been with us since the beginning of June.  Thank you for your help to organize DRC data. It has been a pleasure getting to know you and learning more about your home country of Armenia.
