Meet Our Summer Interns

Lucky Iron Fish welcomed two interns to the Fish Family this summer and we thought we should introduce them to you! Jamie is heading into her 4th year at the University of Toronto where she is pursuing a bachelor of commerce from Rotman, while Catherine joins us from the Richard Ivey School of Business at Western University.
