Grad finds a new career with NOLS

Elyse Guarino wasn’t necessarily looking for NOLS when she found the school. “I was in transition in my life and was looking for a direction,” she said. “I overheard a conversation that helped me decide what to do.”

As it turns out, that conversation was pretty influential. A little more than a year after taking a course at NOLS Southwest, Elyse finds herself employed there full-time. It began with a three-month internship after completing her course. This fall, she’ll return to the Southwest as Outfitting Manager.
