Fastenal Internship Kailee Brower
I completed my internship at Fastenal working with the Business Data and Strategy Support group. Fastenal started out distributing fasteners, but today distributes many different manufacturing and industrial resources. During this internship, I learned about Power Query, M code, PeopleSoft queries, excel functions, data visualization techniques and data management. I also learned how a large business worked, how to communicate in a business setting, and time management skills. I continue to work at Fastenal and I’m excited to learn more and expand my knowledge in applications for data analysis.
CROSS Service Internship Kyle Maciej
	My internship took place at a non-profit called CROSS. CROSS provides services to people who are less fortunate. CROSS collects a lot of data and currently has limited resources to look at all this data. The duties of my internship included helping to make sense of all the data that CROSS collected and help them figure out what to do moving forward. I cleaned data and created basic data visualizations so I could provide valuable information to CROSS. Overall, my internship was a good experience to apply what I had learned from the classroom into the real world and solve real world problems.

	Margaux Douvier Western Michigan University   I am a first year Statistics Master’s student at Western Michigan University -- I plan to pursue my PhD as well. At this time, I am not sure what area of research I will be getting in to, however, I am currently working on a certificate in Biostatistics. I graduated from Winona State University in 2020 with dual degrees in Statistics and Spanish, and a minor in Data Science. Outside of school, I enjoy a good true crime show/podcast (especially Dateline with Keith Morrison) and eat Taco Bell cheese quesadillas way too often!
	Austin Ellingworth Colorado State University   I am a PhD student studying Statistics.  I am in my third year at Colorado State University. My research interests are multiple testing methods, replicability analysis, and statistical applications in genetics. Outside of school, I am interested in sports (and sports analytics), hiking, and live music.
	Nick Meyer University of Nebraska - Lincoln   I'm a 4th year Math PhD student at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln. I do research in low-dimensional topology. I'm particularly interested in questions regarding studying 4-manifolds using 3-manifold techniques applied to their boundaries. I'm also interested in Math Education and implementing more open-ended course activities in pre-calculus and non-calculus-track courses.
