Fishers resident Evan Woodruff is gaining experience as an intern with State Rep. Chris Jeter (R-Fishers) and his fellow members of the Indiana House of Representatives during the 2023 legislative session.
Woodruff is the son of Troy and Melissa Woodruff. He recently graduated from Indiana Wesleyan University with a degree in political science pre-law.
“This internship has created a new perspective for me,” Woodruff said. “I’ve been learning how to apply lessons from college to a practical work setting at the Statehouse. The opportunities I have been given here will be extremely useful in propelling me into the next stage of my career.”
As a legislative intern, Woodruff corresponds with constituents through phone calls, letters and emails while also staffing committee hearings and floor proceedings.
“Evan is doing a great job, and we’re always fortunate to have some of the best and brightest young professionals here at the Statehouse,” Jeter said. “I encourage students from our community to look into this opportunity to broaden their network and build essential skills.”
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.
