“I had the pleasure of managing Kevin during his 2022 summer internship at Salesforce. For one of his 3 main internship projects, Kevin designed a unified feedback mechanism for our internal content centers. Within the first week of his internship, he put together a project plan and led a listening session with the internal content strategy council. He drove the entire project from start to finish, including gathering participants for user research, interviewing them, building a prototype, conducting user testing, soliciting feedback, compiling all results, proposing a final design and next steps, and presenting results to his stakeholders. Kevin worked efficiently and sought input from the right people so that he could make decisions and iterate quickly on his projects. I am so impressed by his professionalism, drive, and curiosity. Kevin will be valuable leader and contributor to any project he tackles!”
