Fro my last post I am going to summarize my time here in Oro Valley even though I still have another month down here. I started back on May 14th and I have grown by leaps and bounds. My knowledge from class has been the foundation of my experiences here. I have learned every minute that I have been at work. I come home mentally exhausted every day and come back for more. There truly is a lot to learn in the Public Administration field. I see now how people can spend a lifetime working in this field and still learn new things.
I am still hoping to one day be an assistant city manager. I enjoy working with the Town staff a little more than working with elected officials. I might one day wish to become a city manager, but for now I am setting my sights for the assistant.
The staff here has been so wonderful. I owe much to my supervisor. She has been instrumental in breaking my police habits that don’t serve my position well. She has a ton of experience with interns and it shows. I only wish I had more time to study under her. I honestly wish I had another couple of months here. I know that I still need a lot of work, but I am off to a good start. For that, I thank you Oro Valley.
