Experience

1. Bay Area Advisory Committee Member

   Western Rivers Conservancy

   Jul 2025 — Present · San Francisco, CA, US

   Western Rivers Conservancy is one of the most innovative and effective organizations in conservation. With the motto of \"Sometimes to save a river, you have to buy it\", they have been doing just that - year in, year out, river by river for more than 20 years. The sophistication of the real estate operation would make Blackstone blush and the results are simply remarkable as a result. Once bought and protected, these rivers are then conveyed to key local stakeholders, from native tribes, the state, the local community where they remain accessible to the public. I will talk to anyone, anytime about their work and how you can get involved. Just reach out.
