Reflecting on Summer Experiences

10/13/2017

0 Comments

 
This blog post might have been delayed but itʻs definitely never to late to reflect and share! This summer I (Hiʻilei Casco) interned through the Kamehameha Schools Kapili ʻOihana Internship Program with the Nature Conservancy Maui. As a field technician, I spent most of my days on the slopes of Haleakalā in Waikamoi Preserve conducting fence checks, leading hikes, exercising our hunting dogs, and removing invasive species. As a student in the environmental field, it was critical that I engaged in field experience in order to 1) boost my resume but more importantly, 2) feel what hands-on conservation work is really like. 

Although I can go on endlessly about the synergistic team I worked with, the relationships I developed with the ʻāina, and the importance of field work to the larger mission of conservation, I will not. There are simply not enough words to express and encompass my experiences and what theyʻve meant to me.

I am so grateful to Kamehameha Schools for supporting me as alumni, and also to TNC Maui for hosting me with the utmost aloha. Here is a visual representation of parts of my journey this summer:

    J&J's Journal

    There have been a lot of firsts for us and by no means could we have gotten this far alone. In creating this business, but even more so this social movement, we realize the value in tracking our achievements, our failures, and the landmarks which help us grow.

    JJ's Journal is to guide us through our journey and help you with yours, as open book that creates space for honest and spirited reflection.

    Me ke aloha,

    Joseph & Josephine's
