Her Story
About Elizabeth
My career started in 2001 after working for the Chamber of Commerce right out of school. Serendipity and passion led me to graduate school where I earned a master's and PhD in public policy from the University of Arkansas while working full time. That experience in academia for 20 years transitioned in 2020 to leading New River Conservancy for three years protecting lands and making them public. Now for over two years I lead the North American hub of Environmental Paper Network protecting forests globally.
