get to know one of our entergy texas interns

meet camila gutierrez, a procurement intern at entergy texas. she’s from guadalajara, mexico, majors in supply chain management, and is entering her senior year at the university of houston. 

this summer, camila worked on the procurement and supply chain team, where she experienced an immersive learning experience by applying what she’d learned in the classroom to real life. additionally, she collaborated with five other interns to explore the application of artificial intelligence in the strategic sourcing process, contributing to the enhancement of supplier selection, risk management, and supplier market analysis. 

when asked about what sparked her interest in pursuing supply chain as a career, she mentioned it all started with a sweet treat. 

“i remember attending a panel about someone’s career experience traveling around the world to procure cookies for a popular yogurt brand,” said camila. “after hearing about their experience, it made me interested in supply chain and i realized how broad the opportunities were.” 

camila’s role focused mainly on category management, which involved overseeing specific categories of products or services, maximizing value and ensuring supply chain efficiency. while she enjoyed working in that space, she says she’s open to working in as many supply chain divisions as possible.  

“camila has worked well with team members and stakeholders as she builds knowledge in the utility industry,” said neal laskoskie, category management manager at entergy texas. “her willingness to take on any task and positive attitude will serve her well into the future.” 

outside of navigating her journey on supply chain management excellence, she enjoys cooking, baking and spending time with her golden retriever, luna.  

the entergy intern program provides students and recent graduates with an opportunity to jump-start their careers, maximize their work experience, and create a pathway for possible full-time employment.  

this pipeline for entry-level talent has produced more than 550 full-time entergy employees in the past five years.
