I hope you are all doing well, the past two weeks have been flying by and I have been able to finalize some of my projects and I have also turned 21 this week!!
My Industrial Placement is coming to end here in Boston, and I have to admit that I have been thinking a lot about my growth over the past year as well as thinking about what is the future holding. I have been reflecting in the past couple of weeks about how transformative this experience has been not only professionally but also personally. I have realized how much I have been growing through this professional experience, I have learned to manage my expectations of others and what others expect of my work. I have further been able to acquire technical, personal and business skills, including team working, communication, leadership, time- management and business awareness in the higher education sector. I have been able to understand what is important to me, recognize my weaknesses without hiding behind them but by embracing them, I have been striving for balance, but also giving and sharing with others. I strive for perfection by dedicating myself to my work.
It is hard to believe that this journey started 12 months ago but I couldn't have come as far if it wasn't for the support and love of friends, family, and co-worker.
So with that being said, I will make the most of the last 10 days working at Northeastern and will catch you next week for the final chapter of my adventure in Beantown.
Thanks for reading,
Love,
Alexandra
