My internship mentor is Leana Bulay, the manager of interpretation and outreach for the San Dieguito River Park. 1. What do you enjoy most about your job? "What I enjoy the most is making a difference in my community through my work at the park because nature is very important to me. I believe that being able to educate others and being educated is crucial for the survival of our natural environment." 2. What is a typical workday like? "My workday varies from day to day, from office and administrative work to working out in the field with students, volunteers, and the general public. The diversity of my duties and my schedule are also things that I really enjoy about my job." 3. How important is getting along with people in your line of work? "It is definitely critical to be able to maintain good relationships with people, especially when you're part of an organization like the San Dieguito River Park. Partnerships with other organizations and members of the community are a huge part of the conservation efforts that are going on here." 4. What other personality traits, skills, or knowledge are important here? "In this line of work, I'd say open-mindedness is very important, especially with new ideas. Having people skills is also crucial because we work with many different types of trail users, and we need to understand them and what they want to get out of the park in order to make it an amazing place for people to be.
