Home » Internship Spotlight: Zori Casiano at Exeter Smiles
an internship spotlight flyer featuring a high school girl

Zori Casiano recently completed an internship at Exeter Smiles, an orthodontic office located near the Senior High. While there, Zori helped the staff with their daily tasks while having a chance to observe orthodontists. Chelsea Stine, Administrative Manager, said that having an intern this past semester allowed her staff to "thrive." She said, "Zori is able to take on necessary daily tasks that would otherwise be the responsibility of our staff. The staff love the extra helping hand as it frees them up to focus on our patients." Furthermore, she said that opening the office to interns has been a rewarding experience for her staff and their business as they see interns learn and take on more responsibilities throughout their semester. "It's a privilege to help give the students their first on-the-job experience. It's a career they're interested in, which makes it that much more rewarding to see them build confidence. The more time you put into teaching them, the greater the benefit to you and your company. Plus, I'm always on the lookout for future employees!"

Q: Zori, can you tell us a bit about what your plans are for after graduation? Have you selected a college and a major?

A: After graduation, I want to go to Pennsylvania College of Technology and major in Biology.

Q: Can you tell us a bit about your internship? What does a typical day look like for you?

A: A typical day at my internship I would walk in and say hello to everyone and then grab a mask. I would put all the clean tools away and wait for them to bring me more.

Q: How did you select your internship? Did someone help you select it? Did you seek out the opportunity on your own? Were you asked to do the internship? 

A: With the help of Mr. Ricketts I found the right internship for me.

Q: Do you think your internship is helping you feel more confident about your decision to go to college and pursue your major?

A: Yes, it made me more confident about my decision to go into dentistry. All the new skills and challenges.

Q: What do you like most about your internship? Is there anything you don't like? 

A: The most thing that I liked about my internship was just the whole experience overall and seeing what the dentists do. I also liked how the people were so welcoming. There was nothing that I disliked.

Q: And finally, what would be your advice to a high school student who's thinking about Exeter's internship program?

A: Follow your dreams and do what makes you feel happy. Get the experience and try things out. If you find a career that interests you the must go for it.
