Kelsey Wentling joined CRC as a River Steward in September. She graduated with an M.S. in Environmental Conservation from University of Massachusetts, Amherst. Her research explored how science and policy interact in trans-boundary river basins, using case studies to identify ways to promote the use of science in management decisions. She also has experience with volunteer engagement and helping folks make a difference for their communities and local environment. Kelsey will be operating out of CRC’s Middletown, CT office. You can reach her at kwentling@ctriver.org or 860-704-0057.
