Currently, I am an Education Fellow at SERC. I created the Campus-Based Learning and Service-Learning Starting Point modules and currently edit the Cutting Edge sites. I earned my Ph.D. student in Conservation Biology from the University of Minnesota where I researched urban ecology and campus sustainability. I also coordinated the University of Minnesota Sustainable Campus Initiative. I earned a Master of Environmental Management in Environmental Economics and Policy from Duke University, and a Bachelor's degree in Geology from Carleton College.

I also serve on the board of the Forum of Women in the Environmental Field in the Twin Cities and a former elected supervisor of the Dakota County Soil and Water Conservation District. Previously, I worked for the Minnesota Office of Environmental Assistance and held fellowships at the U.S. EPA and the United Nations. I also worked and traveled extensively in Europe and Asia.
