“There were two main aspects that I loved about Polaris. The first one was the opportunity to apply everything I have learned in class at Purdue to a real-world problem. The second one was the chance to lead a team of people from all around the world and from various cultural backgrounds. Thus, I feel like I was able to grow not only on a professional level, but on a personal one as well.”
