Anna is a born and raised Alaskan who has always had a passion for being in the outdoors. She completed her BS in Environment and Society with a concentration in social science from the University of Alaska Anchorage in 2018. While in school she completed internships with Alaska Department of Fish and Game Subsistence Division and U.S. Forest Service Wilderness Program. At ADF&G she helped interpret data collected by social scientists to determine future subsistence uses. For the Forest Service she did fieldwork in Prince William Sound collecting
data on degraded areas impacted by human use. She also had the chance to lead a group of SCA students to collect data on invasive species. In 2022 she went back to Alaska Department of Fish and Game to work for the Hunter Education and Training program. While working there she has taught hunter education classes in the Becoming an Outdoor Women program, Outdoor Youth Days and assisted with Youth Shotgun League. Anna has loved the idea of getting people outside to learn a new skill while also teaching them about the land and how they can protect and advocate for their passions. She was excited to find APU’s graduate outdoor education program and hopes that working at the Kellogg FIELD will give her the skills and experience she’s been
waiting for. When not working or in school you can find her with her dogs fly fishing, camping, backpacking, mountain biking, cross country skiing and/or hiking
