Meet Angela - Our Awesome Fall Intern

Posted
October 22, 2020

Hi I’m Angela. I’m from Taiwan (like actually) and moved to Boston four years ago for college. I major in Architecture and Urban Studies and Planning in MIT, and am currently a super senior wrapping up my thesis.

Career-wise I’d love to work with urban design, planning, and community engagement. Outside of school I dance and choreograph a lot. I don’t read many books, but I read Haruki Murakami so much that I can memorize them!

As a digital media and communication intern, my goal is to make ONEin3, an awesome platform for the ONEin3ers, known by as many people in the city of Boston as possible.

In addition, I’ll be writing blogs and putting together everything you want to know of Boston! Let us know if you have any fun things you want to share and we might feature you on our twitter/facebook/blog!

“Boston is the greatest City in the world, with a rich history and a talented core of young individuals.” – Ross Lohr, Founder of Project Repat 

 

 

 

Take all your memorable tees and send them to Project Repat and, voila, you have a beautiful t-shirt quilt blanket.  Even better, Project Repat quilts are made in Fall River and Lawrence by production partners who pay their workers a fair and living wage. Ross and business partner, Nathan Rothstein, demonstrate that you can create a financially successful business but do so in a way that is environmentally and socially responsible.  It’s about paying people well for the work they do, and making products out of recycled materials rather than creating something new.
