This summer I had the unique pleasure of working for CTS in their office in Phoenix, AZ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And let me tell you how impressed and lucky I feel. Not only did I get the chance to work with an office where 60% of the employees are Wabash alumni, but also had the opportunity to take advantage of my bilingual skills and apply them in the professional field, every single day.<\/p>\n\n\n

Silva-Melendez ’24 hard at work at Commodity Transportation Service, where he spent his summer. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

I am also thankful for Saul Villeda and Adalid Cruz. Saul has been a mentor for me on and off Wabash. He helped me start the Hispanic club\/organization at Wabash, La Alianza, and helped me land an internship with CTS. He has helped me tremendously in this internship when it comes to marketing and sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adalid has shown me what an amazing Wabash gentleman and professional he is. He guided me and taught me many skills in this job. His ense\u00f1anzas allow me to be a better accountant and sales rep. Also, I loved the loter\u00eda nights he invited the other interns and me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only thing I have to say now is, Gracias!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
