Welcome, Alex! So glad to have you interning with me this summer.
My name is Alex Duffy and I’m interning at City Hall this summer. So far, I’ve loved learning about the inner workings of local government, meeting business owners, and growing our social media presence. I can’t wait to see what the rest of the summer has in store!
