About

I am an outdoor recreation professional with a passion for preservation in our National Parks. I earned my B.S. in Recreation, Park and Tourism Management from Penn State University in August 2016. After graduating I served as a interpretive park ranger with the National Park Service for two years. I am currently enrolled in a dual-title M.S. program studying Park & Protected Area Management at Penn State University. I intend to return to the National Park Service following graduation.
