  Assist the leadership team with administrative tasks, research projects, and proposal support as needed.

  You are working towards a degree in Communications, Business or other similar field
• Mission-Driven:
  You have an interest in supporting a Veteran-owned business and understand the value of discipline and professional initiative.
• Drive:
  You want an internship where you can make meaningful contributions and expand your knowledge of the government contracting industry at a leading technology company.
• Clear Communicator:
