Summer Herout
Residential Assistant / Program Staff
I decided very last minute during the summer between my junior and senior year of high school to attend The Link School. As a student, I learned so much about spending time responsibly in the outdoors, living and interacting with people, and pushing myself, even if I may fail.
After leaving Link, I graduated from the University of Puget Sound, in Tacoma, Washington, where I studied International Political Economy and Global Development. While living in Washington, I continued to pursue the outdoor interests that I had fallen in love with while at Link.
I am very excited to be back in Buena Vista and a part of the Link community. I am grateful to be a part of the staff team and hope to provide the love and support to the students that I experienced here years ago.
I am interested in pursuing a career in counseling or education and am thrilled to be at Link where the two are so interconnected.
