STATEHOUSE (Feb. 21, 2022) – Our Lady of Providence High School graduate Brynna Walthers is gaining experience as an intern with State Rep. Karen Engleman (R-Georgetown) and her fellow members of the Indiana House of Representatives during the 2022 legislative session.

Walthers, from New Albany, is the daughter of Marty and Erin Walthers. She is attending Purdue University and is majoring in finance and political science, with a minor in history.

"I have always been very passionate about studying government, politics and law," Walthers said. "I never imagined I would be able to have such a wonderful opportunity interning at the Indiana Statehouse. I'd recommend anyone interested in these fields to apply for the program."

As a legislative intern, Walthers corresponds with constituents through phone calls, letters and emails, while also staffing committee hearings and floor proceedings.

"This internship is a great opportunity for Brynna to gain valuable work experience," Engleman said. "She's been a great addition to our internship class and I'm excited to see where life takes her."

Each year, the House of Representatives offers paid internship opportunities to college students, law-school students, graduate students and recent college graduates for the duration of each legislative session.
