Meet Super Sophomore Cassandra Paredes
Because of her superb grades at JFK High School, Cassandra was offered the opportunity to participate in the Super Sophomore internship program through the City and County of Denver.

Cassandra was interested in interning with OMF to explore work within a nonprofit organization and gain career-ready skills.

"I've spent two weeks learning and gaining special skills in this awesome place," says Cassandra. "Not only is this place a TV station, but OMF also allows people the opportunity to take classes and, most importantly, places media in people's hands."

When not in school or interning at OMF, Cassandra enjoys drawing or painting.
