Hello everyone, my name is Chris and I am joining Mt. Adams Institute for a second VetsWork AmeriCorps internship. I am so excited to return and meet the new VetsWork cohort. I am also thrilled to be working with the amazing people at Tillamook Estuaries Partnership for one more year! This is an amazing program and is designed for us the veterans.

I’m a native Cali boy from Santa Cruz. I grew up in the surf and sun, the redwoods and the mountains. I love the coast; I love taking care of this planet! I served in the United States Coast Guard and I am a graduate of Portland State University, receiving a Bachelor of Science degree with an emphasis on environmental studies and geography. I wish to continue my studies and be an active member in the environmental field. I’m hoping to continue to transform and grow; I want to be positive, active, and help others to do the same. There is plenty of work to be done; I wish everyone the best this year!

Last week marked the end of our Mountain to Valley summer camp! For two weeks, students conducted meaningful ecological research while farming, backpacking, mountaineering, and camping. We hope that they left connected to themselves, with new skills and friends, and inspiration to become positive leaders and change makers in our world! #mtadamsinstitute #cascademountainschool #mountaintovalley #mtadams #troutlakevalley  #highschoolcamp #science #stewardship

She’s off for her school overnight trip! She handled all of her own packing and I am fully confident that means she’ll have at least 95% of the things she really needs. Girlfriend is on top of it! #urchinadventures #montessorikids #overnightfieldtrip #cascademountainschool
