Their contributions have been invaluable to our projects and initiatives, and their presence has truly enriched our team. Below, you can read more about their experiences, accomplishments, and the impact they've made during their time with us.Kemilyn MartinsKemilyn Martins, a recent graduate in Information Systems Technology, joined All In Energy as an intern and made a big impact across various projects. She quickly picked up new skills and tools, including Salesforce and Google Sheets, and learned about clean energy and company practices. Kemilyn worked on managing donor data, adding over 800 opportunities to Salesforce, and improving donation processes. She led a cybersecurity project, organized tasks, and showed strong leadership. She also used her technical skills to create a Python script for measuring carbon savings and customized Salesforce fields for different needs. Kemilyn helped test a new system integration, made detailed reports and dashboards, and gave a security training presentation to the team. In her last weeks, Kemilyn focused on improving how donor relationships are managed and preparing for new grants. She also completed a final report for the summer 2024 interns. Her hard work and enthusiasm made a real difference at All In Energy, and she gained valuable experience in the clean energy field. Christina SanchezChristina Sanchez is currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Communication Studies, with minors in Marketing and Management, at Emerson College. Christina was previously a Training and Development intern at the Office of Language and Communications Access at the City of Boston. This summer, Christina joined the All In Energy team as a Marketing and Communications intern. This role came with a multitude of responsibilities and exciting projects! She did a deep dive on the AIE social media accounts, creating a social media assessment, documenting engagement and feedback. Christina then curated and implemented social media posts for the AIE Instagram and Facebook. This included creating tips, reels, polls, and blogs. Additionally, she created a directory, filing all of the materials All In Energy uses as well as their contents. Here, she sharpened her Google Sheets skills and organizational skills. She is excited to have been able to make something that will be used in the future of the organization. Finally, Christina kickstarted a new Blog process! After receiving feedback that the AIE Blog had gone dormant, she thought up a way to bring it back to life - in a fun way! She introduced the concept of ‘nominations’ where she had the AIE team nominate others on the team that they want to see a blog from. She is happy to announce that 4 blogs have been written in the month that she did this project. To say this internship was special is an understatement. Christina Sanchez is beyond grateful to have worked with an amazing team under an exemplary work environment. She wants to give a special thanks to her supervisor, Jesús Martinez, who has taught her and supported her throughout her time at AIE. Jordy ZunigaJordy Zuniga graduated from Bunker Hill Community College with an Associate’s degree in Finance and will be transferring to Suffolk University in the Fall of 2024 to pursue a Bachelor’s in Finance. This was Jordy’s first internship and his first experience in the clean energy field. His previous experience in community outreach and support at school helped him secure the internship at All In Energy (AIE), where Tasha recognized the potential value he could bring as a Program Administrative Intern. Initially, Jordy’s role at AIE was as a Program Administrative Intern for three months. However, after expressing his interest in learning about the company’s finance operations, he was given the opportunity to extend his internship and take on dual roles as both a Program Administrative Intern and a Finance Intern. Throughout his time at AIE, Jordy worked on various projects, including entering financial data, assisting in accounts payable/receivable processing, and supporting monthly closing processes. He also spearheaded event coordination efforts, compiled resources, designed interactive training activities, and co-authored the company’s first Internship Handbook. The experience at AIE taught Jordy the importance of communication, persistence, and efficiency. He learned to embrace the trial and error process, not be afraid to ask for help, and always strive to give his best. Overcoming challenges made the experience rewarding, and he felt valued and recognized for his contributions, which boosted his confidence and skills in business acumen, project management, and strategic planning. AIE has played a crucial role in shaping Jordy’s career and personal development. The support, mentorship and guidance from Tasha, Erin, Venson, Julia Soriano, and the whole program team, were instrumental in his growth. He is now prepared to enter the workforce with the skills and experience he gained from AIE. Looking ahead, Jordy plans to obtain his Bachelor’s degree while entering the workforce as a financial associate. His dream is to work in the finance department of a soccer team and start a business in wholesaling real estate. Jordy is incredibly grateful for the opportunity to intern at AIE, where he built the foundations of his career. The experience and connections he made will always hold a special place in his heart. Thank you, All In Energy, for an unforgettable internship experience. Jacky HuynhHuynh Minh Duc also known as “Jacky” was born and raised in the southern countryside of Vietnam.
