Q: What are you up to this summer?
I am working as a marketing strategy associate at Penske Truck Leasing.

Q: What led you to this opportunity?
A representative from Penske came to campus searching for someone for a business analytics position, but after my interview with them, they created a position for me in the strategy and product team.

Q: What has been your favorite part of the internship so far?
The people, the culture and the company overall. 

Q: What are you most looking forward to getting out of this experience?
I’m looking to add value to Penske by leveraging on my previous experience in marketing and also learning about strategy, segmentation, market sizing and product management from Penske's perspective. I would be keen on learning new tools used in analytics for customer success and insights. I’m sure this is an exciting opportunity to learn and grow!
