Student Leaders in Industry & Faith

Malina Gallmeyer

4th year Environmental Engineer 
Intern at TRC Companies in Ann Arbor

Malina is working this summer at TRC in their environmental sector in engineering.
"During my internship I have quality controlled data for reports, worked on due care plans for contaminated sites and completed groundwater, soil and soil vapor sampling. "
"I have enjoyed learning about a new avenue of Environmental Engineering and all the different things that remediation entails. I also have enjoyed getting out of the office for field work. "

She noticed life away from St. Al's, in a new town, and with a full time job her faith life would have to look a little different this summer. 
"I have turned to the Rosary daily to center myself and, since I often pray it during my morning commute, it keeps me calm. I found a local church with a weekly evening mass that has been a huge blessing and allowed me to set a routine centered on God. Unlike St. Al's the nearby parishes are not open 24/7, so I have found a prayer spot at a local cemetery, which seems morbid but has actually been an incredibly beautiful experience."

We are very excited to have Malina back at MTU and St. Al's this fall.
