Originally from central New Hampshire, Sam was drawn to the far north to work in NorthWoods’ Forest Stewardship Institute. He brings forestry experience drawing from his undergraduate education at Warren Wilson College near Asheville, North Carolina, as well as time spent working and playing in the New England woods (including internships with the Society for the Protection of NH Forests and Northern Forest Canoe Trail). Since graduating college in 2011, Sam has spent time working with The Nature Conservancy in Western Massachusetts and the Brattleboro Food Co-op in Vermont, giving him a view of the non-profit conservation world and a taste for fine peanut butter.

Sam’s other passions in life include whitewater paddling, building with wood/composites, gardening, and spending time outdoors in any other way.
