While pursuing my Political Science degree at Illinois State University, I interned as a Budget Analyst Intern at the McLean County Government Center. I learned skills such as grant writing, data management, team collaboration and mastering Microsoft Office programs.
Some of my key duties included:
● Updated McLean County's 2024 Budget with over 500 employees.
● Coded new formulas in Microsoft Excel to optimize data entries.
● Researched and organized data from McLean County's hiring wages and surrounding areas for McLean County to remain salary competitive.
I continued to work in the Government Center for the next year as a Digital Navigator. I served in the Lead For America program working with the Illinois Broadband Office to ensure high speed internet to all areas of McLean County.
