Forestry Management Specialist
“Working for the AFC has afforded me the opportunity to collaborate with an amazing group of people to protect our forests and natural resources in multiple ways. It is truly a joy and privilege to serve in this capacity.”
Women in the Woods
“For women considering forestry, I think women have the natural instinct to care for things – that’s just what we do! With this natural draw, we bring something to the table that might not have been thought of, and I say this from past experience. From this perspective, why wouldn’t women be good in forestry? From managing the land and taking care of the woods and the things that live in them, to maintaining a healthy forest for generations to enjoy while keeping it safe for our family – if they love the woods and critters as much as I do, I hope more women will consider a forestry career.”
