What’s your favorite thing about working for the Service?
My favorite part about working for FWS is the fact that I will never stop learning. You meet great people, both inside and outside of FWS, who all have unique skill sets that you can tap in to. There’s nothing more rewarding than putting your knowledge to work and seeing a positive outcome, especially in the name of wildlife conservation!
What’s your favorite species and why?
My favorite species is the black-capped chickadee, hands-down. I’ve always loved them for their tiny stature yet big attitude and insatiable curiosity when they find you hiking through the woods. I was even more amazed to see these tiny birds survive the Adirondack winters where I went to college. Look up black-capped chickadee winter survival and you’ll see why!
