><p><em>February 8, 2022<br \/>\nBy Sophia Lorusso (she\/her), Junior English Major.<br \/>\nPictured above: Gabriel Howe while exploring.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>In 2010, the <a href=\"https:\/\/siskiyoumountainclub.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Siskiyou Mountain Club<\/a> was born from sheer passion and motivation. Gabriel Howe is one of the original founders and has been the Executive Director since 2014. He always had love for the Siskiyou Mountains, which is truly reflected in the work that the nonprofit does every year.<\/p>\n<p>The Siskiyou Mountain Club (SMC) operates year-round, but their most active months are March through August \u2013 aka field season. During field season, SMC sends out staff to maintain trails across remote parts of southwestern Oregon and northwestern California. While this work may be physical and tiring, it sure does pay off once overgrown trails are restored back to a usable state.<\/p>\n<p>While winter months may not be as active as spring and summer, there is still an abundance of work to do, nonetheless. This winter, Gabriel is spending his time interviewing internship candidates for the upcoming field season, organizing scouting trips, and doing a lot of human resource and administrative work.<\/p>\n<p>Before the SMC was officially born, Gabriel would explore the mountains alone or with friends to maintain trails and once he got good at it, he decided it was something he wanted to pursue. The nonprofit was just getting started when Gabriel was in his third year at ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø. After he graduated in 2012, he was able to commit full time and put his English major to work.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-48wzvxv-79e477819664539211a69c8728dd6b9b\">\n.avia-image-container.av-48wzvxv-79e477819664539211a69c8728dd6b9b img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-48wzvxv-79e477819664539211a69c8728dd6b9b .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-48wzvxv-79e477819664539211a69c8728dd6b9b av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-9  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/02\/Gabriel-Howe-Paddle-Boarding-on-the-River-English-Program-Stories-ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø.webp 1200w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/02\/Gabriel-Howe-Paddle-Boarding-on-the-River-English-Program-Stories-ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø-300x169.webp 300w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/02\/Gabriel-Howe-Paddle-Boarding-on-the-River-English-Program-Stories-ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø-1030x579.webp 1030w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/02\/Gabriel-Howe-Paddle-Boarding-on-the-River-English-Program-Stories-ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø-768x432.webp 768w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/02\/Gabriel-Howe-Paddle-Boarding-on-the-River-English-Program-Stories-ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø-705x397.webp 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/02\/Gabriel-Howe-Paddle-Boarding-on-the-River-English-Program-Stories-ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø.jpg\" height=\"675\" width=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/02\/Gabriel-Howe-Paddle-Boarding-on-the-River-English-Program-Stories-ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/02\/Gabriel-Howe-Paddle-Boarding-on-the-River-English-Program-Stories-ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/02\/Gabriel-Howe-Paddle-Boarding-on-the-River-English-Program-Stories-ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø-1030x579.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/02\/Gabriel-Howe-Paddle-Boarding-on-the-River-English-Program-Stories-ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/02\/Gabriel-Howe-Paddle-Boarding-on-the-River-English-Program-Stories-ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø-705x397.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" class=\"wp-image-80830 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-80830 avia_image  sp-no-webp\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  > <\/picture><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-kzedix58-542806dfa27eb49bc8b71656fad635c1\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-kzedix58-542806dfa27eb49bc8b71656fad635c1 .avia_textblock{\nfont-size:12px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-kzedix58-542806dfa27eb49bc8b71656fad635c1 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em>Pictured Above: Gabriel Howe paddle-boarding on a river.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-4vc0yfn-aa06f78543f88ac8b529e94f1597c76b '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Throughout his teens and twenties, Gabriel had a variety of jobs that exposed him to different management techniques and high-pressure environments.

Gabriel explains:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If I have a plan in my head for something, it is easier for me to write a narrative about how I want something to go and then turn it into a schedule or bullet list rather than the other way around.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He explains that the Siskiyou Mountain Club has their own publications, like internal newsletters, in which his English major comes in handy.

Gabriel explains how important it is to be able to write for a business: &#8220;When you combine a really cool design with really good writing, it allows people to connect, and it gives your organization a really strong voice at the end of the day.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>English majors have the ability to create bridges between two completely different worlds. The technical writing industry is a goldmine for English majors because businesses always need writers to craft advertisements, memos, and much more.<\/p>\n<p>As a writer, Gabriel knows how easy it is to be hard on yourself when receiving feedback. With his nonprofit, he was advised time and time again to not pursue it because of the difficulties in which he could face. However, Gabriel was able to take all of the criticism from his writing and organization and turn it into a career.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Be able to take criticism that you receive and turn it into an opportunity to improve. Especially when working with an editor, take their advice and work off of it as much as possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you want to get involved with nonprofit organizations and need advice about your resume or where to start, contact ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø&#8217;s Career Preparation Coordinator Max Brooks (<a href=\"mailto:brooksm@sou.edu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">brooksm@sou.edu<\/a>) for more information.<\/p>\n<p>Interested in being featured on the English Program blog?
