Sanika Salim is Executive Assistant to the Chief of Staff in Senator (DE) Tom Carper’s office as well as Intern Coordinator for the Washington D.C. office, where she reviews incoming applications, trains Legislative interns, and participates in hiring new interns for spring, summer, and fall internship programs, a role Sanika says “is very close to my heart, because I began my journey on Capitol Hill as an intern.” Her future plans are to earn a Master’s in Public Administration degree and ultimately to work for the State Department, the United Nations or international NGOs concerning women’s rights and international development.
