在2018年，Booher参加了在华盛顿特区举行的MSU Demmer Scholar夏季计划，并在Theodore Roosevelt保护合作组织实习，该组织支持野生动植物管理和栖息地保护。这个非营利组织有60个合作伙伴，负责协调保护工作和获取土地以供狩猎和捕鱼。

MSU senior taps talents in wildlife management and public policy

In summer 2019, Booher was an executive wildlife policy and research intern at the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department based in Austin, where he contributed to state and federal policy and planning efforts.

His fieldwork included conducting habitat surveys and monitoring bird, reptile and mammal species across Texas’ various ecosystems. He surveyed coastal fisheries, tracked alligator snapping turtles in downtown Houston and assessed populations of red-crowned parrots in the Rio Grande River Valley.

In 2018, Booher was part of the MSU Demmer Scholar summer program in Washington, D.C., and interned at Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership, which supports wildlife management and habitat conservation. This non-profit has 60 partners coordinating conservation efforts and access to land for hunting and fishing.
