Degree: Outdoor Recreation & Tourism Management, Hospitality concentration
Experience Title: Operations Internship
Location: Yellowstone National Park, Summer 2024
"I learned so much from working in Yellowstone National Park this summer. I was the Operations Intern so I was able to move around to just about any position, including housekeeping, kitchen crew, event planning, or shadowing management firsthand for a whole week. The whole experience was as fun as it was beneficial. I met so many awesome people and got the opportunity to even meet people who were higher up in the Xanterra Company (hospitality and lodging company within the park). I would recommend the experience to anyone interested in the field."
