Summary

A motivated and enthusiastic environmentalist with many years of experience, I am looking for the opportunity to hone my skills. In previous jobs, I worked with many stakeholders, government agencies, and landholders. I have found that I work well both independently and with others. I have a propensity to teach and to lead, but I also can listen.
