My fellow Interns

Mariani Landscape has 5 interns this year, of which I am one. I have gotten to know these gentlemen quite well over the past few weeks, as we all live in the same apartment, and I'm sure that we will be getting more familiar with one another as the summer moves on...

The others are: (pictures to come soon)
Andy McDowell, my roommate, a Landscape Architecture student from Michigan State University.
He is the one with the easiest job, at least we like to think so, he helps out the existing Mariani design teams that consist of 14 Landscape Architects with their respective projects.

The Mississippi Boyz: both students at Mississippi State University in the Landscape Contracting program.

Andrew Rulewicz, the other Mormon boy (weird, who would have thought out of the 5 inters at a company, another one would come from the deep south?!?) and definitely the crazy one of the group, who is full of totally unrelated bits of information that he interjects into most conversations...we will say that he is the intern (class) clown.

Tatum Collins, the quite reserved one of the bunch.

Sam Kibler, a plant production student at the University of Illinois Cabannus. We will call Sam 'the local'. His girlfriend Heather, who is a client representative in training, for Mariani has lived here for about a year, so he knows the area the best. We ask him lots of really stupid directions and general Chicago questions as though he has lived here all of his life. Thanks dude, you have helped us out a ton.
