“Brown Altman & DiLeo, LLP highly recommends Plainview-Old Bethpage High School’s Internship Program to local businesses. Our intern, Joseph Gamzo, is a conscientious and hardworking young man who is an asset to our firm. The high school helped us identify an intern with strong personal character and placed him in an environment to learn and succeed. We hope that other businesses will find this program as rewarding as we have and, like us, become participants”
