meet priscilla rodriguez, a procurement intern at entergy texas. she’s from spring, texas, majors in supply chain management, and is entering her junior year at the university of houston.

this summer, priscilla worked alongside members of the procurement and supply chain organization, identifying root causes and recommending potential solutions to challenges regarding at-risk and long-lead materials.
