Office of Climate Change Intern

May 2020 - August 2020 Albany, NY
“Doing meaningful work to support the Climate Smart Communities program. ”

Health Director

June 2017 - August 2018 Livingston Manor, NY
“Friendly staff, excellent pre-camp training, beautiful and well-maintained campgrounds and wonderful camp philosophy. The directors at the DEC who coordinate the program are flexible and easy to work with. I worked here for three summers (counselor in 2016, Health Director 2017 & 2018) and I can honestly say it was the best job I've ever had.”
