“My internship at the EPA allowed me to pinpoint and work on specific areas of interest within the field. My supervisors were eager to help me create a semester of challenges and successes in both the office environment and in the field. I was able to review permits, contact various environmentalists via phone and email, organize a hydrology workshop, test several wetlands and assist my supervisors on different sites.”
