Just a naturalist in one of the coolest NERR's.

 

I am a student at CU boulder and I am studying Enviromental Science. I am in my fourth year and am set to graduate in the spring. I love snowboarding, climbing, and playing volleyball. 

My name is Jenyn, and I'm a NC State Park Ranger at Yellow Mountain State Natural Area. I grew up in the foothills of WNC in a small town called Lenoir. After college, I moved to the Pacific Northwest in Washington for several years where I worked in various education and admin roles at Pacific Science Center. Part of that phase of my career was working as a naturalist in an urban park featuring a wetland and delightful waterway, the Mercer Slough. My husband and I moved back out to Burke county at the end of 2021 where we now have an aspiring homestead with 2 German Shepherds, 4 barn cats, 9 chickens, an ever increasing population of domestic rabbits...and a former PacSci celebrity corn snake.
