What an incredible summer with PepsiCo! Wrapping up my internship in Global Procurement at PepsiCo has been an unforgettable experience. From building dashboards and sharpening my skills in Power BI and Excel to touring plants and warehouses, I had the chance to work on meaningful projects while learning from some of the best leaders in the business. One highlight was creating a tool that will continue to be used beyond my time here. It taught me how to lead through uncertainty and showed me the real impact of my work. I’m grateful for the mentors, peers, and leaders who made this journey so meaningful and can’t wait to carry these lessons forward. A huge thank you to my manager, Michelle Mendola for her guidance, and to my mentors Patrick Puhr, Andy Radke, Shaheer Khan and Gabrielle Nee. Special thanks as well to Matt Burgner, Eric LaRosee, Adrienne Clark, Ryan Heine, Nicole Mango (Nunno), Brandon Sheaffer, Michael Hurley and Zoe Ike for supporting the intern program and creating such a fun summer!
