Julia grew up in western Massachusetts, where she spent much of her youth exploring the woods and lakes of the beautiful Pioneer Valley. She went on to study environmental studies and international development at American University in Washington, D.C., which led her to the Peace Corps after graduation. She spent two years working as a community environmental conservation volunteer in Panama and fell in love with hands-on environmental education and community outreach. Now back in the states, she is thrilled to have made the move west and be joining the Grand Canyon Trust. She looks forward to connecting young people to the natural splendor of the Colorado Plateau and inspiring them towards environmental stewardship and advocacy.
