Everyone, meet Molly. Molly, meet everyone.

Here at Forum, we welcome learning. Whether it be through mentorship, research, shadowing or internship, we believe the best way to grow and succeed is to take time to share your talents with others and learn a little something along the way.

Our spring intern, Molly, was not the typical intern. She isn’t shy or timid to give her great opinions. She is grounded in who she is and what she believes. And she brings a laid back, yet meticulous style to her work that kept us feeling cool, calm and collected no matter the deadline or project. Not only was she a tremendous help with research and social media, she also brought a fresh perspective to a lot of our projects. We figured it just wasn’t fair to keep her cool factor a secret, so we decided to do an intern interview to introduce you to our Dawggone good intern, Molly.
