An internship offers the opportunity to temporarily work in an organization to gain relevant skills. Internships are an excellent pathway to gain first-hand experience and knowledge in a particular industry or field of work.
"This past year, I had the opportunity to intern for Thorne Nature Experience, a non-profit that focuses on connecting youth to nature. Overall, my main task was to allow the children to use their creativity to work in harmony with the environment, so that they take that mindset and expand it to other areas of their lives. With this hands-on teaching and learning experience, I was able to witness firsthand the benefits of having children interact outside of the built environment."
