Áine DeSieghardt
Summer Intern

Hello, I’m Áine and I am from Overland Park, Kansas. I recently graduated from The University of Kansas with a Master’s degree in Special Education (Rock Chalk!). As I was working on my degree, I was a high school paraprofessional supporting students with disabilities in various settings, but my focus was in academic classes. Unsure of what I wanted to do next, I was given the opportunity to accept this internship offer, and I knew I couldn’t pass it up! I love the outdoors – running, hiking, camping, etc. but I also enjoy working alongside individuals with disabilities. I am excited to merge my two passions together at BOEC, and hope to make the outdoors more accessible and inclusive in the future!
