Meet Kristen

School:  Boston College

Degree/Major: Bachelor's in Marketing/Management, American Studies Minor

What was your role? I worked on a number of integrated marketing campaigns to advocate the use of ArcGIS for Local Government, as well as campaigns for promotions with Esri partners such as Dell and TomTom. I was also involved in event planning and coordinating the Federal Showcase and federal reception at the Esri International User Conference.

Coolest thing about working at Esri? The people!

Most important thing you learned during your internship? I learned the value of interpersonal and communication skills—of making connections everywhere you go and developing relationships with everyone you meet. 

Where is the last place you traveled to? The Grand Canyon

Favorite way to spend a Saturday afternoon? On the beach!

If you were stranded on a desert island, what three items would you want with you? A grill for fun cookouts, a speedboat to cruise around the island, and a group of friends so it could be a beach party every day!

Can: According to my intern officemate, Minh, "talk and socialize"

Can't (but wish you could): Go anywhere without getting lost
