Tatiana Mihaita didn’t always know what she wanted to do. But the extra time she spent figuring out her passion paid off, and this summer she interned in something she truly loved.

Mihaita is a Parks and Recreation Management, Therapeutic Recreation graduate student at UNC Greensboro. She obtained a forest wellness internship at the Congaree National Park in South Carolina as part of the Latino Heritage Internship Program (LHIP), in partnership with Environment for the Americas. Forest wellness is specialized recreational programming focused on improving a visitor’s physical, mental and emotional well-being.
