“At the Omaha Children's Museum, I gained experience working with people from all different backgrounds. Not only did I interact with a diverse group of guests and fellow employees, but also people with a variety of experiences. For example, I will never forget the day a shy little girl came over to take a picture with our princess. As I talked with her mother, I discovered that she was diagnosed with cancer a little over a year ago. For a year, this little girl was confined to her home and the hospital because of her chemo treatment. Finally, after a year, she was well enough to leave the house. She chose to go to the children's museum to play like other children. This girl, barely three years old, was so strong and so brave. Lucky for me, I played, laughed, and helped her forget about her illness. At the Omaha Children's Museum, I could make a small difference through my interactions.”

“It had a great atmosphere. Upper management is very involved and works with lower level employees. They all really care for the kids that come to the museum and work to make as happy a place as possible. ”
