Before my senior year at Lakeland, I needed an internship. Honor had my back again and allowed me to work with the Business Services department in a way that accommodated my internship requirements. During that summer, I developed my character and skills for my business management degree. I worked on loan renewals, talking with business members, and gaining additional in-depth knowledge about Honor and its values, which align with the values I hold in my life.

In the summer of 2018, along with my internship, I was also fortunate to be able to shadow a manager for a little bit. We discussed the aspects of being a manager, what my personal future would or could look like, and I sat-in on a few managerial discussions for the experience. I grew my comfort zone tremendously by learning to take initiative and getting comfortable with being uncomfortable.

I have now worked at Honor for just over 1.5 years as a full-time employee. Honor had a position open that I was able to secure before I graduated college. Two days after graduation, in May 2019, I became a Member Specialist. Currently, I am a Member Experience Manager throughout the Northern Region, where I continue to learn daily. Honor has helped me grow as a person as well as a professional throughout the years I have worked here. I am blessed with awesome co-workers, better members, and constant opportunities for improvement!
