I have volunteered for years on habitat restoration projects, in CA, HI, and OR. I taught middle school science for 11 years, then obtained an LL.M. in Environmental Law. Since then I taught sustainability courses at UHMC on Maui, and high school Geology, Meteorology, Environmental Science and Native Habitat Restoration. Now I am the Executive Director of a small land trust in Oregon, where I can apply both my restoration experience and my LL.M.
