I have experience volunteering and working with various wildlife conservation groups and state agencies such as Oregon State Parks, United States Forest Service, and Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. I also have professional experience in mechanical and electrical work, as well as construction management and development. I am in the process of completing an undergraduate degree in Biology and Chemistry. I also have experience in small scale solar and micro-hydro renewable energy development. Currently working on a Microgrid project covering 3 towns in a rural community, powered by solar, hydro, and biomass.
