One of Ashley’s most memorable moments was creating an ethernet cable from scratch. “I set a goal of making eight cables myself,” she recalled. “With persistence and guidance, I overcame initial struggles and felt a huge sense of accomplishment seeing my handmade cable in action.”.
Ashley’s technical skills improved significantly during her internship. “Applying theoretical knowledge in a hands-on environment was a big difference from school,” she said. “This experience highlighted the importance of practical learning and adaptability.”.
Her biggest takeaway? The importance of an open-minded approach to new challenges. “Embracing opportunities to broaden your knowledge and skills, even outside your academic focus, will help you stay versatile and prepared for the future.”
