WHAT’S A PLACE YOU LOVE IN THE MIDWEST?

The trails of Manistee National Forest; my neighborhood in East Grand Rapids; and many of Michigan’s inland lakes.

WHAT DRIVES YOU TO DO THIS WORK?

In a warming world, our task is to take care of each other and this earth. I’m grateful for the opportunity to do my part alongside my colleagues at ELPC to ensure clean water, clean air, wild places, and healthy communities for today and future generations.
