About

Lauren attended the University of Massachusetts Amherst where she received a degree in natural resource conservation. Upon graduating she worked for the Parker River NWR controlling invasive species and assisting with pilot marsh restoration work. Her love of backpacking then led her out to Oregon where she worked for the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and later the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) leading wetland restoration projects. Today, she is a regional coordinator for the National Wetland Inventory Team and helps ensure high quality wetland data across the US.
