World Wildlife Fund

Over the summer I worked as an intern for the World Wildlife Fund. WWF is an international nonprofit organization dedicated towards creating a better harmony between people and nature. During my time there, I interned with the Markets Institute team to research invasive Asian carp and potential market solutions to control their population and negative impacts. I focused my research on the pet food market, looking at the potential supply chain involved with making Asian carp pet food. I met many insightful and inspiring people along the way. Overall, WWF was a very welcoming and enjoyable place to work.
