Blog : New Intern Excited to Join GA Community

By Emma | Jan 16, 2012 | in

Since my freshman year of college, I've known that after graduation I would pursue a career in environmentalism. Now, as a second semester senior, that impending step into the 'real world' is getting much closer, and I've realized that along with drive, great knowledge and experience are going to be invaluable when trying to be successful.  It is because of this that I am so excited about being the new Sustainable Business Development Intern at the Green Alliance for my last semester. My greatest interest is the connection between the society and the environment, which is why I am eager to help Green Alliance to further develop a green community and support for local sustainable businesses. I’ve been aware of the work Green Alliance does for a while now, and am glad for the opportunity to learn from such a great organization.

I was previously the Programs & Services intern with New Hampshire Businesses for Social Responsibility, and just returned from a semester abroad in Denmark, studying Sustainability in Europe. I enjoy everything about the great outdoors, a new-found love for cooking, and spending time with my dogs Stella and Hudson. I’m looking forward to meeting and getting to know members and friends of the Green Alliance, working to spread its message about sustainability, and becoming a part of the environmental community that the seacoast is so well-known for.
