Haley Gardner West – Master of Natural Resources (MNR)
I received a B.S. in Botany in 2006 from the University of Florida. After graduating, I founded and managed an organic farm and hosted community workshops on aspects of agriculture for seven years before moving to Washington State, where I have worked in private school education for the past ten years. My primary professional and academic interests involve natural resource management, fisheries science, and ecological policy.
Jessica Heppler – Professional Science Masters (PSM)
I am a graduate of Humboldt State University (BS, Wildlife Management, 2007) and have worked in several natural resource positions in government and private organizations. I am interested in all facets of natural resource management, but my current focus skews toward policy. In particular, I am fascinated by the use and abuse of scientific information in natural resource management.
