We are continuing our HRVI intern alum spotlights with John O'Fallon, Marist '05.

John majored in Communications with a minor in American Studies; today he is a Senior Manager in Sales Strategy with Pepsico. John shares how his experience at HRVI has helped him in his professional pursuits since graduating from Marist:

"I gained a lot of experience as an intern at HRVI that I have utilized in my career. The importance of research, preservation, and community history to name a few. The dedication to a cause and the importance of volunteering and giving back are important lessons that I learned while at HRVI."

Read John's full update here. This update, and all of the updates to be featured, will be linked to each alum's name on the Interns page of the website.
