I’m a management consultant with experience driving operational and revenue impact across technology, health care, and real estate. In my most recent role at Accenture, I designed automation workflows that delivered about $14 million in annual savings by eliminating manual provider data processes and improving efficiency across large enterprise teams.

I've also led platform deployments for Fortune 500 clients, coordinating cross-functional teams, defining technical requirements, and modernizing billing and data systems. beyond consulting, I've worked in venture and real estate - supporting investment deal sourcing, building market intelligence, and closing over $1 million in real estate transactions while educating first-time buyers. Across my roles, I focus on turning complex business problems into scalable, data-driven solutions that create measurable financial and operational results.

The most valuable skill I've used is translating complex business and technical problems into clear, actionable solutions – basically, structured problem-solving combined with stakeholder communication. At Accenture, this showed up when I helped design automation workflows and platform implementations that required aligning technical teams, business leaders, and operations around one road map and measurable outcomes.

That skill is what enabled projects like driving $14 million in annual savings and modernizing enterprise data processes. For students, I suggest building this skill in three ways:

(1) practice breaking big problems into smaller parts using frameworks (case interviews are great for this)

(2) work on cross-functional projects where you have to explain technical or complex ideas simply

(3) get comfortable presenting your thinking—join consulting clubs, do internships, or lead projects where you own both analysis and storytelling. The goal isn’t just to have the right answer, but to make the answer usable for decision-makers.

The Pentagon is pressuring Anthropic to loosen safety guard rails on its AI model Claude, warning, it may terminate the company's 200 million contract and designate Anthropic as a supply chain risk if it refuses. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth we're poorly set a compliance deadline, seeking unrestricted military use for all lawful purposes.

Anthropic has resisted removing protections related to autonomous weapons and mass domestic surveillance, citing reliability and regulatory concerns. officials suggested invoking the Defense Production Act to compel cooperation. Legal experts question the consistency of labeling a firm a risk while forcing its use. the standoff could benefit competitors willing to meet Pentagon requirements. Read more HERE from CNN.

AMD is using a chips-for-stock strategy to challenge NVIDIA's dominance in AI semiconductors. under a multi-year deal, Meta will buy billions of dollars of AMD chips for AI and new data centers and may take up to a 10% equity stake. similar arrangements include AMD's October pact with OpenAI. the deals mirror Nvidia's investments in customers that then purchase its chips, fueling circular AI spending and bubble concerns.

I've been receiving this question a handful of times in-person and online via DMs. Because summers aren't the only time for you to pursue opportunities, and many want additional experience before entering the work force as a graduate.

Here are 3 ways that I’d recommend finding Fall or even Spring internships (during your school term)

Fall 2026 internships will slowly pop up as Summer 2026 internship listings slowly simmer out on the job platforms as recruitment comes to an end later in around April.

So once you’re done recruiting for Summer 2026, Fall internship role will be just around the corner for you to try applying to!
