This week’s 2019 SikhLEAD Summer Internship Spotlight features Kamalpreet Cheema & Jaskaran Singh!
Here is what they had to say about their SikhLEAD Experience:
Kam: Hi, my name is Kam Cheema, I am a third-year at the University of California San Diego, and I interned with Senator Kamala Harris.
Jaskaran: My name is Jaskaran Singh, I am a Sophomore at The University of Texas at Austin, and I interned with the SALDEF office.
How did you find out about SikhLEAD?
Kam: I had a friend who was a part of the 2015 SikhLEAD Cohort and he told me that it was the best experience of his undergraduate career, so I thought that it should be something that I should look into.
What did you get out of SikhLEAD?
Jaskaran: I met a ton of cool people here at the SALDEF Office. Also, I attended a lot of hearings, learned about how SALDEF works and talked to many Congressmen. I believe that the connections I received from this organization will help me with my college career and beyond.
