15 Dec Intern Introduction: Heidi Boles

Hi everyone!

My name is Heidi Boles. I am 20 years old, and I’m currently enrolled in Central Louisiana Technical Community College, pursuing an Associate’s Degree in Business Administration. So far, working at the Kisatchie Ranger District office in Kisatchie, Louisiana has been a blast! I’m super grateful to be able to work as an intern as part of the Resource Assistant Program with the U.S. Forest Service.

Due to my maturity, many are surprised by my actual age—some even assume that I am in my mid-twenties. It is hard being so young because people assume that I don’t take things seriously. But, my school and my career have always been so important to me. I take a lot of pride in everything I do that will benefit me and my future. 

I am very thankful for this opportunity to be able to work here under such amazing mentors. I hope all of the other Resource Assistants are enjoying their time at their sites just as much as I am!
