I begin my lifelong journey as an educator.
This summer I will work as a Summer Commuting Crew Leader for the Student Conservation Association in Washington DC.

6 High Schoolers and I will restore trails and sites in Washington, DC area parks, meet with leaders of the Environmental movement, learn about conservation and environmental advocacy, and take an incredibly fun trip at the end of the summer. I am absolutely pumped.
Some concerns I have:
My role as white male outsider.
The culture of SCA and other environmental institutions.
Being a good role model.
Being a firm but understanding boss.
Some things I'm looking forward to:
Getting Outside!
Working Hard!
Educating the Youth!
Being in DC during the Obama generation!
Future Plans
