Kristen Travers blends over 25 years of experience in conservation and environmental education to engage diverse audiences in opportunities to connect with, and steward, nature. She has worked extensively with watershed and conservation organizations to provide mentoring and technical training and has led the development of nationally available education resources. Her work includes fostering strategic partnerships that conserve habitat and biodiversity and improve water quality. Kristen’s love of the environment stems from her childhood family experiences camping and getting happily lost in the woods leading her to pursue a degree in Environmental Science and later an MEd in Training Design & Development. In her spare time, she can often be found hiking, kayaking the Brandywine, or caring for her exuberant (aka messy) gardens.
