Jessica is a superstar! 🌟 She joined the Board of Directors in June 2021 and swiftly climbed the ranks to become Vice President in 2023. Her passion for outreach, education, and conservation efforts is truly inspiring. Not stopping there, she also leads the Membership & Tabling Committees with enthusiasm and dedication. Before getting involved with TAS, Jessica was part of the bird steward program for Audubon Florida, volunteered with Circle B Bar Reserve in Polk county, and was a Volunteer Naturalist at Blandford Nature Center in Michigan, where Jessica earned her B.S. in Biology from Grand Valley State University. Her fieldwork studying piping plovers in Cape Cod and golden-cheeked warblers in Texas showcases her commitment to avian conservation. We are incredibly lucky to have Jessica on our team! 🌸
