While working for Vermont’s Green Mountain Conservation Camps, Katie fell in love with Vermont’s natural resources and the process of communicating about stewardship, conservation, and ecosystem services. Since then, she has worked for Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department and US Forest Service Fish & Wildlife Department. After earning her Master’s degree in Restoration Ecology and Habitat Management, Katie joined RNRCD with enthusiasm to grow the District’s breadth of work. Katie is passionate about supporting local landowners and municipalities in floodplain connectivity projects, clean water initiatives, wetland restorations, and agricultural best management practices. When not working, Katie can be found enjoying seasonal activities like paddleboarding, gardening, and xc-skiing with her dogs!
