Alumni Testimonials

"I cannot thank the leaders of CREST enough for introducing us to so many individuals within the industry. I am trying to take full advantage of these opportunities. Thank you for a great summer so far!"

"My main summer project was to research senior housing. Throughout the entire summer many associates have repeatedly explained to me why this research is so important and how it will help the company in the future. It is a great feeling knowing that you and your work are valued.”

"On one occasion I was walking down the hallway and the CEO stopped to talk to me and introduce himself. Then he invited me to a meeting he would be attending called the North Suburban Planning Council, he thought it would be a great opportunity for me to learn a little more of what Cummings does. I really enjoyed it and was happy to be introduced at the meeting so properly."

"Thank you to you and the rest of the Crest team for putting together the presentation workshop. It was an enriching experience. I enjoyed learning about what the other Crest interns are working on this summer… I would like to highlight the incredibly warm welcome I have received from everyone at Dedham Savings, and I feel like a valued member of the team."

"Rather than seeing the acquisition and development side, I was able to see what is necessary to maintain a property and revenue stream after redevelopment is completed.”

"This past week I have worked with the development team and learned more about their role within the firm and what they are responsible for when redeveloping a property. These past 2 weeks with development have been the most intriguing because I was able to find an alignment with both construction and Political Science. The permitting and negotiations with government parties is especially interesting because it is ever evolving but essential to the development."
