Welcome BACK Areli Mendieta-Santos to the summer intern team! 🖤💛

"Hi everyone! My name is Areli Mendieta-Santos, and I am an upcoming senior at Purdue University. I am majoring in Developmental and Family Science with concentrations in Child Development and Family & Community Health. I am also pursuing two minors; one is in Spanish and the other is in Latin American & Latino Studies. During my free time I enjoy thrifting, coffee tasting, and spending time with my family and friends. I may look familiar, as I am a returning intern! This is my second summer as a 4-H Intern with Purdue Extension and I am extremely grateful for another summer to continue growing, developing new skills, and expanding my experience. I’m excited for another summer of meaningful work supporting youth and their families!"

Welcome BACK Lane Shepard to the summer intern team! 🖤💛

"Hey 4-H family and friends! My name is Lane Shepard, and I am very excited to be returning as a 4-H intern this year! I will be a senior at Huntington University this fall, where I am majoring in Business Marketing and Management. I enjoy working with different social media platforms and marketing, as well as connecting with youth through our 4-H programs. I am really looking forward to being back and getting the chance to connect with a lot of new people. A few fun facts about me are that I am absolutely obsessed with miniature dachshunds, I can never turn down a good cup of coffee, and I love learning new things! If you see me around, come say hello! I am looking forward to a great summer and cannot wait to see everyone at the fair!"
