Ayla Brooks, Research Intern

Having done her first internship at the World Trade Center of Greater Philadelphia in spring 2007, Ayla Brooks joined the WTCGP again as a research intern to work part time in spring of this year. Ayla is a graduating senior from Rowan University (Glassboro, NJ). She will receive her bachelor of arts degree in economics with a concentration in international studies and a double minor in Spanish and business this May. After graduation she plans to volunteer in Gambia, one of the smallest countries in West Africa, for a year and then return to the U.S. to start a graduate program. When asked why she decided to return to the WTCGP Internship Program, Ayla replied: “My first experience with the WTCGP was great, I learned a lot and met many new people. This is an organization that is committed to help local companies penetrate and prosper in the global arena. I feel that these services are very important and I’m glad to play a small role in it! I appreciate the opportunity that I have been given to grow and learn more about this organization.”
