Kenny's Internship at Bird Technologies



Kenny Bogner
Kenny Bogner is interning this summer with Bird Technologies in Solon, Ohio.  Along with the normal assignments of an internship, he has had the opportunity to work on a new project that Bird is making and has a big role on the software side of the project.  He gives credit to the Computer Sciences classes he has taken at Ashland University, as they have built upon each other and given him the knowledge needed to contribute to this experience.  It really is a great internship and I enjoy the challenges they put before me (as well as writing software, of course).”
