Hello! My name is Tessa Otero and I will be a senior for the 2014-2015 school year. I am majoring in Public Service & Public Policy at Arizona State University's School of Public Programs and hope to graduate Spring 2015. This summer, I will be interning for the TRIO Downtown Student Support Services (SSS) office in Phoenix, Arizona. I am very excited about this opportunity.

More information about me:

  • I am the oldest of three. My little brother is 16 years old and my sister is 13 years old.
  • I work part-time at the City of Phoenix Burton Barr Central Library in downtown Phoenix.
  • I will be a summer America Reads tutor at the Salvation Army Kroc Center.
During my internship at TRIO Downtown SSS, I am responsible for creation and implementation of these new programs:

  • Creating a tutor/student coach model for the program. I must create a student coach handbook, evaluation process, and I will be part of the hiring process.
  • Developing a student leadership board that will advise staff about potential and future TRIO services and programs to enhance student experiences.
  • Assist the student organization, TRIO Devils, to grow and maximize its impact for TRIO students.
  • Assist and learn about grant writing.
I am happy to be interning at TRIO Downtown SSS and all the opportunities it will bring!

Between your job, internship, and tutoring, it sounds like you'll be having a busy and memorable summer. It's good that you'll be doing your internship before your senior year (I wish I had done the same), and that you'll be helping to shape the future of the organization you're interning for. Best wishes!

I hope that your internship has been going really well. I had no idea that TRIO even offered an internship.
