For my Capstone experience, I was a monitoring intern for the non-profit organization Stewardship for their Snoqualmie Stewardship Program. During my internship, I helped collect data from restoration sites. At the end of my internship, I took analyzed the data to write a monitoring report which synthesized the field data and summarized my findings. I simultaneously performed an extensive literary review on how monitoring could improve the restoration process.
