Caitlin Hart - Intern
Caitlin studied Art History at Tufts
University, and during that time helped out at a
number of cultural organizations she loved, but that
usually required her to sit at a desk in front of a
computer. Her favorite work in the past was blogging
for her study abroad program in Prague. What could be
better than traveling, seeing centuries-old beauty,
and writing? During her first post-grad summer in New
Hampshire, surrounded with the historic buildings she
loved so much but stricken with great wanderlust, AiP
gripped her interest. Here was an organization working
actively to keep historic sites – and the communities
they call home – standing strong.
Caitlin is pursuing a career in cultural preservation
– whether it be in archives or architecture – and is
happy to support AiP’s work with her writing, her
hands, and her love of history.
Susie Trexler -
Publicity & Promotions
Susie Trexler
is a 2011 graduate of Lewis and Clark College. During

one of her favorite archaeological experiences was
matching ancient pottery shards), was captain of the
swim team, and earned a degree in history. She
attended Pacific Northwest Preservation Field School
with the University of Oregon for two summers, during
which time she developed a particular interest in
historic preservation.
Susie has been an intern for the Nevada Historical
Society, near her home in Reno, Nevada, and for the
National Park Service in Anchorage, Alaska where she
helped research buildings to be added to the National
Register. She wrote her senior thesis on the post-WWII
decline of the American front porch as an
architectural feature.
Susie is looking to further her education and pursue
a career in the realm of historic preservation and
architecture.
Tyler Walton -
Architect & Drafting Intern
Tyler Walton
is a graduate of Boston Architectural College with a
design degree specializing in historic preservation.
He has both hands-on construction trade experience and
architectural design/drafting skills. His studies and
work have taken him from Richardson-Romanesque,
Tiffany, and Upjohn designs in Boston, to ancient
sites in Greece such as Delphi, Ancient Corinth and
various sites in Athens.
Previous employers include: Goody, Clancy, and
Associates; Boston Architectural College; and BNK
Petroleum. Recently participating with the BAC/Tufts
Solar Decathlon team sponsored by the Department of
Energy, Tyler has a newfound interest in incorporating
sustainable design into conservation.
Tyler is dedicated to AiP because of the balance of
value and satisfaction it brings to all involved. AiP
offers individuals the ability to take part in
meaningful recreation, while at the same time
contributing invaluably to those in need; Tyler thinks
this exchange of efforts should exist in all aspects
of our lives.
