I sat down with Erica Kokoszka, a 2018 graduate from Syracuse University, to discuss how she turned her undergraduate service learning experience into a career post-grad. Kokoszka reflected on the skills and qualities she acquired through her work at the Shaw Center and how they informed her in her current position.

Erica’s story emulates how service learning can help students land jobs after their four years at Syracuse University.
