Welcome to my simple, yet thorough overview of my internship this past summer (2003), read on and be informed. Navigation is to the left, there are also navigation tools embedded in each page, allowing you to jump between sections or go through things sequentially.

By reading over the materials I have presented here you will attain a very good grasp on all facts pertaining to my internship.

Upon reading Section 1, you will have a better idea of how I presented/marketed myself, where I searched for openings and/or went about finding out about this job, and also how I secured it.

Next, in Section 2, I will tell you a bit more about Road Runner & Time Warner Cable, and also about my specific job.

Section 3 will contain excerpts from my daily logs that I kept, pictures of people I worked with, and some of the code that I wrote (but not all).

Section 4 has some personal advice from me - how to go about getting your own internship, why it is do beneficial to do so, and finally what I got out of mine.
