Week 10: thank you
That’s all folks. I want to dedicate this blog post to reflection and gratitude. This opportunity came out of the blue for me. I was not even aware that the fellowship program existed, or even the Columbus Foundation for that … Continue reading
Week 9: it ain’t over yet
Ok so let us get all the sappy phrases out of the way: it’s the final stretch; we are nearing the end; it’s almost over; welcome to the beginning of the end; it’s the final countdown. Now I have “The … Continue reading
Week 8: wrapping it all up
I made a list today. A checklist of all the things I have accomplished and have yet to accomplish during my summer fellowship at DSC. It was longer than I expected. Some days felt like I was up to my … Continue reading

Week 3: productively waiting
The theme of the week: productively waiting. This week felt pretty stagnant at DSC. The two weeks prior were dedicated to preparing for the 2017 Buckeye Golf Classic and to sending out our Request for Proposal (RFP) to prospective marketing … Continue reading
Week 2: envisioning success
Hey, you. Welcome to my second weekly update on my Summer Fellowship experience at DSC. This week has included a lot of necessary moments of pause *heavy, deep breathing.* Being the Type-A poster child that I am, work tasks can … Continue reading
Week 1: community & communication
Blog posts always feel like a message in a bottle. Whom do I address? So let me begin with a simple… Hello, you. Whomever you are. Here is what you need to know first… Who: Karlee Hehemann What: The Columbus … Continue reading
