"I'd like to thank you for the tremendous opportunity you allowed me this summer in becoming a part of the Advanced American family. Thank you for giving me a first-hand experience in the construction field, which was an industry I knew very little about before my internship. From bidding & estimating a job, to executing a project on-site with the crew, I learned a ton through this internship that could never be taught to me in a lecture hall. Between the scholarships over the past couple of years and this summer internship, I'd like to thank you and the rest of the Advanced American family for investing in my future and continuing education at OSU."
