Happy Spotlight Sunday! 🌟 Every Sunday we will be spotlighting our Greyhounds’ summer internships and sharing the valuable information they learned along the way.
Meet Lexi Frenda!
Lexi is a senior Forensic Science major with a minor in Biology. On campus, Lexi is involved in the Evergreen Players and is the student director for the Spotlight Players this year. She's also the president of the Jewish Student Association, a member of the Honors Program, and a member of the Tri Beta and Delta Delta Epsilon honors societies.
This summer, Lexi interned at the Essex County Prosecutor's Office as a Crime Scene Unit Intern. She learned about this position through a family-friend. Her role was to shadow and assist detectives in their office operations, which included vehicle searches, evidence processing/packaging (fingerprinting and swabbing), and preparing 3D Leica scans for court. She also got to tour Newark Ballistics Laboratory, Union County Prosecutor's Office Forensic Laboratory, and NJ State Police Laboratory as part of her internship.
One piece of advice Lexi has for students searching for internships is: "Pull on connections!"
We are so proud of Lexi! If you are considering applying for internships in the coming semesters, make sure to stop by the Rizzo Career Center to learn more about the application process. Until next week, Happy Spotlight Sunday!
