experience working with public land agencies such as Olympic National Forest and WA State Dept. of Natural Resources, and for the last 6+ years have worked in
partnership with Quimper Trails Association at Gibbs Lake Co. Park on the trail system. I worked with Jefferson County Parks Director Matt Tyler in obtaining a grant
through BCHW to replace an existing foot/bike bridge with a Type III puncheon suitable for equestrian use.

strong affinity for blues and R&B. I feel that parks and recreation can be important aspects of
community and education.
