As a previous international masters student in Norway and former chair/past-chair of the SDWG I have a unique perspective of TWS’s internal functioning. My goal as the co-chair of the ECPWG is to develop ways to benefit ECP members through direct member benefits and supporting continued efforts to empower our members especially those from underrepresented/challenged backgrounds. I currently work for WRA, Inc in California as part of the wildlife and fisheries compliance monitoring team. This position puts me on the front line with regards to early career work in our field. It’s important to me that we focus on the fundamentals of ensuring our members are prepared for career positions that provide them the ability to sustain a high quality of life and advance in their careers. To do this I ask that every member engage with us to the degree to which you can afford so that together we evolve this profession.
