Whether its gardening, hiking, biking or just relaxing, I’m out the door the first chance I get. I’m an enthusiastic birder. I’m more enthusiastic than good but I enjoy it just the same. I also love to work with people to make a contribution to the community around me. Prior to NWF, I was a community organizer for many years and I love helping people find their voice and transform their community. As a part of NWF’s Campus Ecology team, we are building the EcoLeader community to support the development of student leaders for the wildlife and the environment. I am looking forward to connecting with you through the site and seeing all of the great things that students are doing to make an impact in their community and the world.

I like to look for the skills and talents others bring to the table and find ways for everyone to contribute

As a student, I started a campus organization for students to volunteer as basic literacy tutors with both children and adults. It's still an active groups over 20 years later at UNC- Chapel Hill. At NWF, I've worked on many exciting projects and campaigns including launching EcoLeaders!

Better bike connectivity! Greener power supply!
