“I'm grateful, I'm sad but I'm also overjoyed. I walked into this aquarium with no expectations, a little nervous but excited and ready to take on something new, I leave today with so much knowledge, so much love and even more excitement because when you find something that you are truly passionate about it is a life changing experience.” Katie
