The best part about summers at KEA? Probably the nice weather in North Idaho. Second best? Interns!
Meet Kayla Baker and Trevor Frank — this summer’s interns in the office at KEA. Kayla joins us from North Idaho College where she is currently studying zoology with an eye toward a career in wildlife conservation. Now, though, she’s helping us with pretty much anything and everything that a small local conservation non-profit organization needs to have done.
Trevor rejoins KEA part-time this summer from University of Oregon’s law school where he will be a 3rd-year student in the fall. Trevor was a member of last summer’s crack legal team and he is back this year doing legal research and causing serious problems for local polluters.
We’re really pleased that they are taking time from their valuable summer break to help us out. Also, otherwise, we’d be stuffing envelopes by ourselves.
look at that crazy girl.
