I am excited about working at DWR this summer because… being afforded the opportunity to work in an environment where your hard work is rewarded by the enjoyment of the guests and their families, is such a positive and caring reinforcement. That, combined with being surrounded by gorgeous landscapes, is the most anyone could ask for in their working life. Who could say no to earning a living while living a vacation?     

One interesting thing about me is…After graduating college, I spent a year interning with St. Joseph Center in Venice Beach, CA, learning about and working with the homeless population of Los Angeles. It was a humbling year, full of growth in my understanding of humanity, and the complex nature of the state of the world. An experience I am so grateful to have had, and work that I hope to continue as I move forward in my adult life.
