Ana is studying\nEnglish with a Global Studies minor at the University of Vermont, and is\nlooking forward to her third year on the Huertas team! She began as the Media\nand Communications Intern, and is excited to pursue her second year as a Field\nIntern. Ana is from Mexico City, Mexico, and has been living in Vermont since\nshe completed high school. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked <em>Why\nHuertas? <\/em>Ana confided that she had no idea about the project or the migrant\nworkers in the dairy industry prior to Huertas. When she discovered the\nprogram, she saw it as a simple solution to her homesickness\u2014 a perfect way to\nconnect with Spanish-speaking people that shared her colloquialisms and\nregional history. In the past, Ana has done a lot of work in small non-profits,\nbut looking forward she is interested in doing more work in line with her\nuniversity degree, possibly writing or narrative journalism. Her dream job is\nto be a non-fiction writer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One piece of advice Ana has for new interns is to be unafraid to speak Spanish with Huertas participants. Although it can be stressful, this fear can cause hesitancy, which in turn means that you spend less time talking with and getting to know the participants. Ana says that the super intimate conversations that she has had with Huertas have been invaluable to her college experience. According to Ana, Huertas has helped her gain confidence writing about food security\/migrant issues, research skills, and communication skills. She says that, as an intern, you have to be independent and self-motivated, and really learn how to organize your time in an effective manner. Her goal for this semester is to do more Huertas-related writing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2019-03-18-at-4.22.51-PM-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-327\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2019-03-18-at-4.22.51-PM-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2019-03-18-at-4.22.51-PM-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2019-03-18-at-4.22.51-PM.jpeg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>************************************************************************<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00a1Hola de nuevo,\nAna!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a1Esta estaci\u00f3n Huertas da la bienvenido de nuevo a Ana! Ana estudia Ingl\u00e9s con un menor en los Estudios Globales a la Universidad de Vermont, y est\u00e1 emocionada empezar su tercer a\u00f1o en el equipo de Huertas. Comenz\u00f3 como una becaria de Medios y comunicaciones, y est\u00e1 emocionada de continuar su segundo a\u00f1o como una becaria de Campo. Ana es de la Cuidad de M\u00e9xico, M\u00e9xico, y ha estado viviendo en Vermont desde que termin\u00f3 la escuela secundaria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cuando se le pregunt\u00f3 <em>\u00bfpor qu\u00e9 Huertas? <\/em>Ana confi\u00f3 que no ten\u00eda alguna idea sobre el proyecto o los migrantes latinx en la industria l\u00e1ctea antes de Huertas. Cuando descubri\u00f3 el programa, lo vio como una soluci\u00f3n simple para su nostalgia, una manera perfecta de conectarse con personas hispanohablantes que compart\u00edan sus coloquiales y su historia regional. En el pasado, Ana ha trabajado mucho en peque\u00f1as organizaciones sin fines de lucro, pero en el futuro ella est\u00e1 interesada en hacer m\u00e1s trabajo en l\u00ednea con su grado universitario, posiblemente escribiendo o periodismo narrativo. Su carrera ideal es ser una escritora de no ficci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Un consejo que\nAna tiene para los nuevos becarios es no tener miedo de hablar espa\u00f1ol con los\nparticipantes de Huertas. Aunque puede ser estresante, este temor puede causar\nvacilaci\u00f3n, lo que a su vez significa que se pasa menos tiempo hablando y\nconociendo a los participantes. Ana dice que las conversaciones s\u00faper \u00edntimas &nbsp;que tuvo con Huertas han sido invaluables en\nsu experiencia universitaria. Seg\u00fan Ana, Huertas la ha ayudada a ganar\nconfianza escribiendo sobre temas de seguridad alimentaria\/migrantes,\nhabilidades de investigaci\u00f3n, y habilidades de comunicaci\u00f3n. Ella dice que,\ncomo becaria, se tiene que ser independiente y auto motivado, y realmente se\naprende c\u00f3mo organizar su tiempo de una manera efectiva. Su meta para este\nsemestre es hacer m\u00e1s escritos relacionados con Huertas. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This season Huertas welcomes back Ana!
