Communications Internship Program Flourishes

For the past several years, MNA has been host to more than a dozen interns who have helped to share the important work that we do with people around the state. This year, we are pleased to introduce two current Communications Interns:

Jayli Husband joined MNA in the fall of 2020, after graduating from Okemos High School in the spring. This internship satisfies her passion for nature and environmental science and aligns with her academic interests. As a freshman at Michigan State University, Jayli is now pursuing a double major in Environmental Geoscience, and Global and International Studies.

Emma Kull joined MNA in December 2020, shortly after graduating from Michigan State University with a Bachelor’s of Science in Sustainable Parks, Recreation, and Tourism. Since then, she has accepted an offer to the University of Michigan’s Rackham Graduate School in their Environment and Sustainability program. Outside of work, she loves animals - especially her two kittens Bailey and Panda - dance, and going for long hikes at Woldumar Nature Center.
