I enjoyed the opportunity to speak with our interns about my background and experience leading teams. We were also able to share our thoughts on how to approach their careers with the potential twists and turns, but the end result should be working in a job they love at a company that helps them fulfill their goals and aligns with their authentic selves.
Through my internship with the Grants Program team this summer, I gained valuable insights into a wide range of ocean solutions addressing critical issues and had the privilege to support passionate young ocean leaders. This experience not only expanded my understanding of the ocean sector but also helped me align my career path with the important work being done in the #climatesector
As summer begins to wind down, Sustainable Ocean Alliance is celebrating the incredible young #oceanprofessionals that supported our programs this summer as interns! 🌊
In Partnership with Elemental Excelerator, Clean Energy Leadership Institute, and FutureMap’s Empowering Diverse Climate Talent #EDICT Internship Program, SOA was honored to have Ela Gokcigdem and Rosalyn Kamp join the #DreamTeam this summer to support SOA's Grants Program and our new #EcopreneurNetwork.
From executing #grants for grassroots organizers to supporting founders in their #startup journey, Ela and Rosalyn contributed invaluably to SOA's mission while deepening their own individual understanding of the ocean-climate sector.
By empowering diverse talent to grow within the #climatesector, we are able to create a more inclusive and thriving professional environment for all. Learn more about these two young ocean champions below.
Thank you, Ela and Roz—here's to the next wave of ocean stewards!

Why is our internship program so successful?
Years (and years) ago I experienced, as an intern, what an incredible internship program can and does look like thanks to Yahoo, Dan Rosensweig and Hobart and William Smith Career Services. Their program was so impactful, it influenced the way we've built out a robust (for our size) and successful internship program.
Not only have we hired incredible interns upon graduation in the last two years, we consistently hear great feedback, “When I speak to my friends [about their internships], even the ones at well-known, prestigious companies.. I’m learning 10x more and actually enjoying work everyday.”
So what makes it so successful?
1. Long before a job description, the foundation for a successful internship is laid by hiring managers who are 100% bought in and excited for an intern. Their investment in an intern is extensive, there’s no denying that, so first and foremost it’s up to them to want the challenge and reward (i.e. developing a student into a professional). Get manager buy-in!
2. We treat our interns like full time employees (seriously), meaning their responsibilities have real impact and weight. We're welcoming them into a culture of trust and high performance, so from Day 1 we're emphasizing their agency, allow space for failure and supporting them with a lot of coaching.
3. We *genuinely* want them to be incredibly successful regardless of an Aircapture job offer. Want to go into aerospace instead? Maybe we don't have a job opening for them. We ensure they have everything they need to land their ideal job upon graduation. This requires project alignment from managers, extra training from the People team (LinkedIn, time management and presenting, etc.) and we extend our assistance even after they've flown our coop.
