Today was the first day of my work experience with Ocean Associates, Inc, and we started the day with meeting our leader, Eric Newton. He explained that all three members of this (Camryn, Mickey, and myself) that we would each have an individual project we would be working on. Besides this, he also explained what Ocean Associates is and what they do exactly. For this first day, we spent most of the time getting to know each other and our personal goals for the work experience program. For myself, I wanted to explore a possible career option pertaining to Marine biology or any marine sciences. Everyone had different interests, so Mr. Newton wanted to ask everyone what they were looking for. We also met Juleen Savarese, the director of HR at Ocean Associates, who was the one that helped organize our work experience alongside Mr. Newton.
