Originally from northern New Jersey, Jocelyn was introduced to ecology while exploring the very urban
Hackensack Meadowlands
outside of New York City. She has traveled across the country several times to expand that ecological knowledge, teaching natural history in Alaska, editing an environmental magazine in Seattle, and tracking
Southwestern Willow Flycatchers
in the Sonoran Desert. Jocelyn received her Master of Environmental Management degree in Conservation Science and Policy at
Duke University’s Nicholas School of the Environment
in 2007. While at Duke, Jocelyn enjoyed
Carolina barbecue
and pursued an interest in conservation planning. For her Master’s Project, she collaboratively created a method of identifying functional connectivity using geospatial and graph analyses. This work was done in support of
The Nature Conservancy’s
conservation planning efforts in Washington State. Before graduate school, Jocelyn received a B.S. in Natural Resource Management from
Cook College at Rutgers University
, where she studied applied and human ecology, and participated in the ecological restoration of the Meadowlands. In her free time Jocelyn enjoys exploring the landscape of her new home state through hiking, cycling, and photography, as well as tasting its food and wine. When she’s not outside she loves to read and knit. Jocelyn joined CBI in November 2007.
