I believe that preserving and protecting our natural environment is of paramount importance, and I am dedicated to doing my part to ensure that future generations can enjoy the same natural beauty that we do today. I would bring my enthusiasm for the outdoors and my attention to detail to every aspect of my work, from trail maintenance to wildlife management to educating visitors about the importance of conservation. I'm excited to put my skills and knowledge to work in service of our national parks. In addition to my passion for conservation, I have an interest in DIY and enjoy hands-on work. I'm always eager to roll up my sleeves and tackle a project. This skillset would be a huge asset as a park ranger, whether it's fixing a trail marker or repairing a picnic table. I'm a jack-of-all-trades kinda person, and I thrive on variety and problem-solving.
