Excellence Award for the
Working Woods Program My philosophical approach to my work: I believe that how I spent my days is how I spend my life, and I am grateful and honored to serve in a role where I spend my days and life to help communities and ecosystems thrive. I believe that good forest management considers the health and good of the land hand-in-hand with the people who own, steward, or manage that land. I have a landscape-scale philosophy to how I see priorities in conservation and a personal approach to education about forest management issues. State/Province served: Ohio
