I have nothing but positive things to say about DHL. Leigh is a creative, inspiring, and highly capable educator and I am always impressed by her dedication to the community and serving students. I would urge any students considering a career in education to consider working with her as an internship with DHL would surely be a rewarding and educational learning experience.
