Welcome to Intern Insights!

Throughout the summer, we will be highlighting a different intern each week, showcasing who they are, what they do, and what makes their internship at Thompson unique.

This week, we're featuring Palmer Jackson, a rising senior at The Citadel who is interning with our Regional Capital Projects group.

Palmer is based at our Santee office and works on site at The Citadel, giving him the opportunity to experience the full construction process from takeoff to commissioning.

Hear from Palmer as he shares more about his internship experience, the work he's involved in, and what he's learned so far during his time with Thompson.

In recognition of Construction Safety Week, our team participated in a safety briefing led by Cache Valley Electric while visiting the nearly complete galvanizing mill currently under construction at Nucor Steel Berkeley.

The briefing focused on electrical safety, including NFPA 70E classifications, rescue equipment, and best practices for identifying and mitigating job site risks.

At Thompson, safety is at the forefront of everything we do—not just this week, but every day. We are committed to protecting our teams and maintaining safe job sites at all times.

Thompson Construction volunteers spent the afternoon at Liberty STEAM Charter: A School of Inquiry, Innovation, & Impact, teaching 5th graders measuring techniques and introducing isometric drawings (ISOs) through a hands-on build-your-own pipe project.

This activity was a follow-up to last month’s visit to Thompson’s new fabrication facility in Sumter, giving students the opportunity to apply what they learned in a real-world setting.

It’s always a joy to see students engaged, learning new skills, and building confidence for the future.
