Much of my own early education happened in the forest, homeschooling in Western Mass. This helped me to develop values that have guided my life since—curiosity, play, and an appreciation of the world around me. In college I studied Communications, earning my B.A., before moving back to the Valley in order to join the year-round staff at a local camp. There, I leaned into my early love of the forest while also nurturing a passion for working with youth. Since then, I have had the pleasure of working in the Children’s Department at the Amherst Jones Library and am now thrilled to be working at the Tree of Life Forest School.
