Career Highlight

On Valentine's Day 2020, Chris knew exactly what the Summer 2020 Internship program would look like. By St. Patrick's Day 2020, everything was different. Over the next two months, Chris converted Crestron's entirely in-person intern program into a program that was 90% remote. During the Summer of 2020, Crestron welcomed its largest intern class in company history without rescinding a single offer due to COVID-19. In addition, several interns from the 2019 and 2020 programs received full-time offers and are now mentoring incoming 2021 interns.
