Participating in the Living City Project gave me so much insight into the nature of New York City and what makes it unique. Through my experience in the program, I got to meet with the large network of partners that Tanya and Andy provided and had the opportunity to spend especially lots of time collaborating on projects with NYC's District of City Planning and a Brooklyn neighborhood's community board. Throughout these experiences, I developed strong teamwork skills that will serve me well in the future. I also secured a film internship that introduced me to the world of documentary filmmaking, something I would never have been introduced to otherwise. These experiences allowed me to build a strong resume and gain firsthand exposure in the workforce, before starting college. Not to mention living in Midtown Manhattan also provided the perfect base to thoroughly explore (almost) every borough of the city.
