Meet our new intern, Nathan Lee!

By Nathan Lee

Hey there, my name is Nathan Lee and I was born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii.  I graduated high school at Punahou School, and I am currently a rising senior at Loyola Marymount University (LMU) in Los Angeles.  Skateboarding, hiking, surfing, camping, traveling, and exploring new places in the outdoors are just a few activities on my long list of hobbies.  I am studying Entrepreneurship, and I am extremely grateful and excited to be working with LEAP and APIOPA this summer.  Growing up in Hawaii has immersed me in a deep melting pot where a multitude of cultures and ethnicities intersect.  Being exposed to such a variety of cultures has led me to grow an affinity for all types of people, and once I left the island to begin college on the mainland, the API community has provided me with much support and love.  Sustainability and healthy environments have become very important to me.  I am confident that my internship experience this summer will help me grow and an individual and leader who will make a meaningful impact in my surrounding community.
