Hospitality Internship in Newport, Rhode Island
This photo was taken on June 25th in Newport, Rhode Island with my colleagues : Alex Pendergrass, F&B Supervisor, Bradon Materese, Guest Services Manager, Jocelyn Evans, Guest Services Agent, Pravin Bhaite, Andrei Golban F&B servers. This photo is so special to me because when I first started working in Newport I had no idea where my internship was going since it was my first time working in hospitality, but the support of these guys has helped me gain confidence in what I could do and also gave me a better understanding of this industry.
Through this internship, I have learned that America is a very diversified community, and as you can see in this photo we are from different countries such as: India, Moldavia, Haiti and the US and we all have the same objective, which is to contribute to the success of this company. I think that America is what it is today because of its ability to embrace diversity. For me, America means a lot. It means opportunity and diversity, since it has provided golden opportunities to people from all over the world to grow economically, professionally and personally. As many other people, I intend to take advantage of this opportunity so I would be able to contribute one way or another to the workforce in my country, Haiti.
