Kelly joined us as an AmeriCorps Habitat Enhancement Crew member for the 2024-2025 year. He recently graduated from Portland State University with a Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science with a minor focused in Water Resources. While there he had an internship with the Willamette River Keepers, where he identified and mapped invasive aquatic vegetation. His career goals are currently focused around preservation and restoration, but he someday hopes to be part of a dam removal project. In his free time Kelly continues to enjoy the outdoors by mountain biking or playing disc golf.
