My name is Erin Barnes.  I work at an Intermediate District as a special education teacher in White Bear Lake, MN.  I am finishing my Masters Degree in Natural Science and Environmental Education at Hamline University.  I am passionate about making environmental education accesible to neurodiverse students. 

I have worked in local, state and federal government resource agencies and non-profits. I have been involved in program development and evaluation, professional development, volunteer management and more. I try to share my passion for the natural world with others and inspire them to make changes.
