KELLEE BYARD
is a University of Michigan graduate, lifelong environmentalist, & artist employed by the National Wildlife Federation
welcome to kellee byard's website
I have an enduring passion for the outdoors and its health, and that is why I graduated from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor's of Science degree in Program in the Environment. Interning at UM's Matthaei Botanical Gardens and Nichols Arboretum further grew my love of nature.
I was even awarded its Nanette LaCross Student Prize.
I am now an environmentalist, dedicating myself to fieldwork, conservation, and stewardship. Read my most recent blogpost on how to aid wildlife.
Currently, I am employed by the Pacific Northwest National Wildlife Federation in Seattle, Washington. I am involved in a variety of activities to create a conservation coalition to preserve our wildlife. Activities include developing hands-on programs, policy development, community outreach, and more. Also, as a Youth Development Professional for the Seattle Boys & Girls Club, I plan and implement programming to enrich children's after-school experience. Please take time to review my website and contact me. Thank you.
