More Than an Internship
My Experience at Casa Famiglia
About Me
Ciao! My name is Zella Poarch and I am participating in the Summer 2025 session of Sant'Anna Institute. At my home insititute, Ohio State University, I am a third year double majoring in music and psychology with a minor in marketing.
My Story
"This program has changed my life, transformed my perspective, and allowed me to recenter my career path and values. I am honored to have the ability to be a part of Casa Famiglia Family for 10 weeks."
I have a strong passion for helping people, this is what drives my education, my religion, and every other aspect of my life. This internship has revived my passion and drive for helping people. I have a lot of experience in childcare, and so this opportunity was perfect for me.
I have a lot of experience working with kids and have a passion for working with kids that are neurodivergent. I would like to become a licensed social worker and own my own practice.
As for my hobbies, I play a multitude of instruments, but at school I mainly focus on jazz bass. I love music in all its forms and this itself has shaped me as an individual and has shaped my career & education path. Music has molded me into the person that I am today.
