“I am honored and privileged to have worked for Congressman Todd Platts and his dedicated staff in his district and D.C. offices. I would like to thank the 19th District Internship Association for affording me such an exceptional opportunity. Throughout this 10-week experience, I have learned much regarding public service and politics in both the local and federal sectors, and I know that this invaluable experience will go a long way in helping me to choose a career. It has also been truly wonderful to work for a man who not only wants the best for his country but also cares deeply about his constituents back in the 19th District.”
