>> When I was in Penn State, I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering
and I minored in Environmental Engineering and I really wanted to do environmental work.
I had a vision of sort of saving the world when I graduate.
When I was a sophomore at Penn State, I started interviewing companies
and just really just looking around to find something that I could do during the summers.
I end up doing three internships with Exxon Mobil, two in New Orleans and one is in Houston,
Texas which is where I got my eventual full time offer.
And from those internships, I really discovered what I liked and what I didn't
like which is it's really equally important.
And so I ended up accepting a full time offer doing environmental work
which is why I had really had passion about when I was in school and so it was--
it was a perfect fit for me because I was able to combine what I wanted to do along
with working for a company that I knew was a very solid company
and that offered me great financial stability.
So that's how I got started with Exxon Mobil.
