Attendee Insights

So for me, this motto of “DREAM.
DARE. DO”…has really carried me
throughout my career to aim high
and to dream big … Even now, it
feels really surreal to be working at
my dream publication. It’s something
that I didn’t know a girl from Hawaii
could do, and to be able to work
at the Post at such an early age is
something I am so grateful for.

During my time at Merrill, I
remember thinking, 'This is the
first time that classwork applies
directly to what I hope to do with
my life.' It wasn’t just about the
skills I was learning but the people
I was learning with and from."
