Adam joined the District in 2024 as the Education and Outreach Technician. He brings a lot of enthusiasm for communication and education about conservation to his role at the District, as well as a lot of enthusiasm for just about everything!
Adam grew up in Aptos, California among the redwoods and beaches of Santa Cruz County. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in Rhetoric and Media Studies and Environmental Humanities from Whitman College. After some time working seasonally in outdoor education, adventure tourism, and several odd jobs, he went on to earn a Master of Education in Environmental Education at Western Washington University. Before working at the District, he coordinated field trips for Wild Whatcom and assisted with curriculum revision for a monarch butterfly conservation nonprofit, the Monarch Joint Venture. In his spare time, Adam enjoys running, cooking, riding his bike, and knitting.
