Why did you choose to attend Warner College and CSU?
I felt strongly that understanding the science behind the ecosystems I was trying to protect would help me develop better policy. Warner allowed me to blend social and ecological science in exactly the way I was seeking.
Any advice for current WCNR students?
Student organizations are critical for creating professional opportunities and field experience that students can’t always get in class. I recommend incoming students get involved in student clubs to gain experience that complements the classroom.
You’ll have much better luck getting jobs because you’ll have that experience. Clubs also provide networking opportunities that are just as valuable. If the opportunity you’re seeking doesn’t exist, build it yourself.
