I know firsthand how difficult it can be to transition from academia to industry. Cold applying to jobs feels like sending applications into a black hole, and establishing internal references can be even more challenging. That's why I'm using this post to share my story…🧵

I'm looking for an intern role that allows me to work independently and collaboratively while providing mentorship and embedding me in a tight-knit team. I'm open to remote positions, those in the Raleigh-Durham area, or offering a living stipend for relocation.
