Guenevere Patty is a UO senior set to graduate this spring with a major in marine biology and two minors in chemistry and Italian. Through her schooling Guen has realized what her true calling is: to educate and work towards ecological reform by bridging the gap between the average person and the scientific community. Guen sees a strong connection between healthy forests and marine biology, and her work with the SWFC will provide a broader view of processes that influence good decision making upstream for ecological benefit downstream. Guen looks forward to bringing her scientific understanding to the SWFC and gaining administrative and facilitative experience.
