bound: chapter one
hi, we’re bound.
As the first team of HLK interns to form during a pandemic, we are literally home-bound as we take on this remote internship, but we are also journey-bound. Traversing through the unknown can be intimidating, but we have the distinct pleasure to take on this chapter as a team. Forward together.
