Internship: Public Policy intern for the Wilderness Society in Washington D.C.
"I have learned so much not only about the environment, but also about the legislative and political processes, as well as how non-profit work fits into these grand overarching frameworks. It was valuable to work on behalf of our national lands for the philosophy of Wilderness. I’ve learned to live in a city and work in a professional atmosphere. I became more confident in my social skills and public speaking abilities. I also learned to navigate the political scene on Capitol Hill, which was enlightening to learn how things work there."
