Summer of 2016 is a summer that I will always cherish, and that would mostly be because of Haven Interiors LTD. Every day since the end of May to early August, I made my 21-minute commute to one of the best places I could ever work at–Haven Interiors in Milwaukee. At Haven, I worked alongside 11 extremely […]

This summer I interned at Haven Interiors LTD. in Milwaukee, and I had the time of my life. It was nothing like how the movies make it look.
