Emma possesses all of the qualities you'd want in an employee. She takes initiative, has an excellent work ethic, figures out new technologies quickly, and brings creativity and enthusiasm to her every effort. Her internship with me was for an all-too-short three months, but in this time, she worked on multiple projects for the SPR Companies, performed detailed research, fearlessly took on new social technologies, collaborated effectively with the team, and was always ready with a smile and new ideas. She even leveraged her music background to compose an original song we used to promote an online event.
