She developed her background in environmental education by working with the Audubon Society of Portland and the Columbia Gorge Ecology Institute. Melissa has a degree in Environmental Studies from Linfield College, and when she’s not in the office she secretly longs for a life on the stage as an actress (or at least a costume designer). |
