Aaliyah Quintal '21, a double major in English and Communication, is currently virtually interning with General Motors as part of the Internal Communications team. In this role, her main duties are  storytelling to the internal audience, GM employees. 

Out of her intern class of over 600 people, Quintal was selected to moderate a Q+A session for the virtual intern super slice with Chairman and CEO of General Motors, Mary Barra. For an hour, Quintal got the chance to virtually sit down with Mary one on one and discuss career advice, innovation, leadership, and more. Quintal writes, "I never would have dreamed that this role with GM would have given me the opportunity to speak with someone like Mary, but this only touches the surface of the amazing projects that I have had during my short time here."

Quintal is a rising senior and will be graduating this coming December. At UMass, she currently works with the Admissions department as a Marketing Communications intern and is also a peer advisor for the Communication Department.
