As the Wolf Ridge Program Coordinator, I’m the point of contact for leaders of groups visiting Wolf Ridge. I help groups book dates, fill out paperwork, answer questions and make schedules. I also coordinate Wolf Ridge naturalists as liaisons for groups visiting campus. One of my favorite parts of my job is running our Teacher Institute where I lead professional development for teachers in outdoor/environmental education! I started out at Wolf Ridge as a student teacher naturalist in 2018, a mentor naturalist in 2021, and on the full time program team in 2023. When I wasn’t at Wolf Ridge, I was teaching different areas of science in schools throughout Northern Minnesota. Outside of work I enjoy reading, playing board games, and getting out in the canoe with my husband, Charlie.
