As a professional, she wants to work with people experiencing homelessness and she thought the best type of experience is being a part of it all. Outside of being an intern here, Quintasia loves to watch marvel movies and spend time with her doggos.

Malick Absy

His long-term goal is to be a clinical therapist with a focus on addiction and group work. Malick chose Trinity Center for his internship because he developed a passion supporting folks that are unhoused when he moved to Austin and he wanted strong mentorship from experienced social workers.
