AES

My name is Amaya Gallivan, and I am a dedicated college student currently enrolled at Liberty University, where I am pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology with a cognate in Data Networking and Security as well as a minor in Graphic Design. During the months of September-October, I interned for an artificial intelligence startup know as Move.ai. For two months, I lived in London, England working at their headquarters as a Solutions Engineering Intern supporting their information security and helping with data infrastructure projects. Move.ai is a private software development company that specializes in motion capture, artificial intelligence, computer vision, extended reality, augmented reality, and virtual production. My internship at Move.ai provided me with invaluable hands-on experience in the field of artificial intelligence. I had the privilege of working alongside a talented and diverse group of professionals who shared their knowledge and expertise generously. This exposure allowed me to deepen my understanding of AI technologies, including machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision, among others. I truly felt like a valued member of the team, and I am grateful for the mentorship I received. My internship at Move.ai was an immensely beneficial experience that has left a lasting impact on my personal and professional development. I am deeply grateful for the opportunities I had and the knowledge I gained during my time at Move.ai.

My time in London was nothing short of amazing. From the moment I set foot in this vibrant city, I was captivated by its rich history and modern energy. Exploring iconic landmarks like the Tower of London, Buckingham Palace, and Big Ben left me in awe of the city's grandeur and cultural significance. One of the highlights of my time in London was experiencing its charming neighborhoods, each with its own unique character. From Camden Market's eclectic mix of shops and street food stalls to the serene beauty of Greenwich and its historic observatory offered a peaceful atmosphere from the city's hustle and bustle. Furthermore, Notting Hill's colorful houses and the vibrant Portobello Market filled my days with bliss. Lastly, Hyde Park's vast green spaces and Kensington's elegant streets provided a serene escape, perfect for long walks and picnics. Each day was a new adventure, and I left London with cherished memories and a profound appreciation for this extraordinary city.

I loved every second. Definitely experienced some obstacles but I would totally do it again. I’m gonna go home a new person and am going to miss this country. I got to meet so many cool people and see so many cool things. I travelled to other countries and see so many new towns. My family is from here so I got to see them for the first time in eight years. My friends visited and I got to show them everything I was doing. London was the best place to do this program and I loved every second!!!!!!

My internship experience has been truly exceptional. The professional environment at the workplace was top-notch, and the people were not only friendly but also genuinely concerned about my well-being. Throughout the internship, I had the privilege of acquiring a wide range of invaluable professional skills, while also nurturing personal growth. This experience has been nothing short of remarkable and has left a lasting positive impact on my professional journey.The combination of a supportive and nurturing atmosphere, coupled with the exposure to diverse learning opportunities, has undoubtedly made this internship an exceptional and enriching experience for me.

Anglo Educational Experiences has provided a great experience for my semester abroad. I couldn't have asked for a more supportive group. Struggling with homesickness and the many questions I had, I knew that I could always go to the Anglo group. They were very well prepared for the most part and were professional with interactions.

I participated in the program in 2003, and it has had a significant impact on my career and my life. I was placed in an internship with the Liberal Democrats Parliamentary Press Office. Everyone was incredibly warm and welcoming, and they strove to give me an incredibly memorable experience. They invited me to a variety of meetings, social events, and conferences. I was given unique research and writing tasks. All of this gave me great insight into the world of politics--a world in which I thought I wanted to pursue a career. Instead, I realized that my passion was actually more in the policy arena rather than the actual politics, and I shifted my career path. Without this internship experience and the exposure I had to such a variety of activities, I am not sure if I would have ended up where I am today.
