DC Immersion

May 27

Some days are easier than others. An unpaid internship has its stresses, but also its benefits. Joining the Stimson softball team was the best idea I’ve had in a long time. Active, yet still maintaining connections with awesome people.

Tonight is a reception for the Scoville Fellows, the incoming class. As a friend of a Fellow who was awarded last round and who worked with someone on the board, I was invited to attend.

Progess on IPSS project planning is sluggish. To define an assesment that was assigned (rather than created through collaboration) is difficult not in terms of understanding, but in terms of designing the product to cater to the POV of the client.
