“My name is Indigo Abe. I am a student at John Burroughs High School who is going into senior year. I joined the Workability/We Can Work Internship Program about five months ago, but so far it has been an amazing learning experience. As an artist, I love finding new ways to put out my creations, being able to work with all sorts of clients who enjoy my craft is a great privilege. Through my internship, I have been lucky enough to join in the production of Burbank Merch and to support my city through my personal, hand-drawn designs. I love my work and I love the vast opportunities I have to learn and explore through these programs,” said Indigo.
