Page 2 of 2 As an instructor of environmental studies, it has become abundantly clear to me that I really need to practice what I teach --- individual responsibility and community involvement. Since moving to Oshkosh a decade ago, most of my community involvement has centered around my elementary - aged children, their schools, and our neighborhood. In joining the Sustainability Advisory Board, I hope to be more broadly engaged with issues affecting our community and I believe both my educational and professional backgrounds as a plant ecologist and university - level instructor would be an asset to the board. Additionally, I am enthusiastic about the board's proposed Sustainability Plan and would be honored to be a member of a team that sees the plan approved and its goals initiated or achieved. 12/9/2[311
