Nick Wanamaker’s senior project

I will be working in real estate with US Properties. While they can give me work for eight weeks this time is flexible, so if either of the two organizations that have not yet responded have openings I may be able to work there too towards the end. The two organizations I am waiting to hear back from are the Missouri Historical Society (specifically the soldier’s memorial branch) and the APA, which is an animal shelter. I hope to gain experience in a work environment. While I do not plan to go into real estate as a career, I feel that the experience that this opportunity will provide will extend beyond the scope of real estate. The historical society would give me valuable experience working in an environment similar to a museum. I plan to work at the Chicago art museum during my freshman year of college. With the APA, I hope to give back to my community in a meaningful way. The end of my schedule is pretty flexible, as US Properties is able to give me work, but is also keeping things open in case anything else comes up. I will create a slide show detailing my experience. This slide show will include pictures from my time working with US Properties and summaries of what I did week to week. I will also give advice for anyone interested in working in a similar environment and more general advice on what to do and what not to do when working on a senior project.

  1. Hi Nick, this project sounds cool. I like how it’ll be flexible which leaves you room for other opportunities! Even though you are not interested in pursuing a real-estate path, It sounds like you will learn about its business environment.

    I hope your other connections work out and you learn a lot!
