Our first day travelling to the New England Aquarium was quite the relaxing experience. It began on the train from Worcester Union Station to Boston South Station where we go over our schedule for the day. When we arrived at the aquarium, we met with Tim Werner at the Ocean Center where we were introduced to our work space and oriented to our environment. This was a standard office building with meeting rooms, cubicle style desks, and marine mammal decorations everywhere. One thing that stood out to us was how dedicated everywhere at the office was to preserving wildlife. The decor of each personal work space consisted of magnets, pictures, posters, brochures, and trinkets all relating to wildlife conservation efforts. Everyone at the New England Aquarium shows a genuine passion for our nature's ecosystems. We want to carry this same passion and portray the same dedication through our project and hopefully make a difference in this community.
