Ameek Singh ’16 was recently named one of five Bay Area-based summer interns in the Bank of America Student Leaders program. This paid opportunity develops real-world work and leadership skills through hands-on experience at a local nonprofit organization. Singh’s internship will take place at Junior Achievement, which helps students in grades K-12 with career readiness and entrepreneurship.

Singh and more than 200 other Student Leaders from across the country also were invited to attend the Student Leaders Summit in Washington, D.C., from July 10-15. There, the students discussed how to increase diversity and inclusiveness as well as how to positively impact communities through cross-sector collaboration.
