Land Conservation Coordinator
-
May 2019 - Present
Energetic, self-motivated, highly organized and detail-oriented individual who is committed to land conservation and expanding public recreation lands in Texas will work closely with the GSP team, with public agencies and other sister conservation organizations to secure additional conservation lands with conservation easements or outright purchase; connect with private landowners who may be interested in land conservation and/or trail easements; aid in development of trail strategy and planning; and support the expansion of trails on existing public and private lands. The Coordinator will keep detailed records of his or her contacts with landowners, local governments and other agency staff, with allied organizations, and with potential funders. An ability to work with and engage people of all types and to build positive relationships with land conservation and trail partners is crucial. Show less

Project Manager
-
Oct 2018 - May 2019
I was brought on to the job to develop new partnerships and customer bases, as well as maintain some past relationships. As Nido is experiencing unexpected growth, they needed someone to reach out to industries that they have meaning to for a while. So far, this has included doing research to establish contact with the correct people, and reaching out to them in meaningful ways. The current project is national and state parks, particularly due to recent wildfires and enhanced tree preservation efforts. Show less

GIS Specialist
-
Mar 2018 - Oct 2018
Started off as a GIS specialist - modeling global disaster indices to spatially compare impacts of climate change. This portion consisted of digitizing and geo-referencing printed photos that my boss gave me into the same spatial reference system. As the center got busier hosting events and Pliny began to travel more, he needed me more as a personal assistant. This job included creating presentations, collecting data, organizing information, building structures at the center, planning events, and co-hosting open houses. Show less

Volunteer Coordinator

Organized and lead creek clean up/ eco-exploration events at two different sites in Austin. Started in a support position, but ended up taking over most responsibilities of the job. Tasks included attending meetings with city officials to determine suitable sites, organizing with local corporate offices and volunteer organizations, coordinating with both volunteers and the Alliance to plan the event, leading the clean-ups, and teaching the participants what a watershed is, how they impact it, and how they can reduce their impact.
