The Road to Success
During my internship with Confirmo in Prague, I noticed that success was less about being the loudest person in the room and more about being someone others could rely on. People valued showing up on time, doing quality work, and working well with the rest of the team. Everyone seemed to take pride in what…
Growing Through Experience
Throughout my internship at Confirmo, I have strengthened several skills that I know will benefit me in my professional, and personal life.

The past 8 weeks in Madrid have been an incredible experience and one I am super thankful for. Coming here was both an exciting and nervous time, but I can positively say that this experience has been wonderful and one of a kind. Over these past eight weeks I think I have seen and experienced…
Family in Praha!
Ahoj everyone! This past week was kind of my last full week at work as my supervisor, Dominika, is going on vacation in Greece (super casually and cool) for the next two weeks. It also felt like my last week because EUSA (the Prague internship placement team) hosted a farewell boat cruise and dinner on…
