I can't imagine a program that opens more doors than SINSI. From the start, it let me do more meaningful work and take on more responsibility than I ever could have hoped at this stage in my career. When I finish the program, I'll have two years of exceptionally valuable experience, a top-notch degree, and connections that could only be made through SINSI. I am incredibly grateful for this opportunity and for how well it has set me up for a future in public service.
