Kaitlin worked as a development and collections intern at the Cartoon Art Museum in the spring and summer of 2021, and she was a tremendous asset to us during this unpredictable, transitional period in the museum's history. She is an attentive, enthusiastic learner, and was always quick to lend a hand whenever and however she could. A real team player.
