About
Hi, Mary here.
I am serving as The Nature Conservancy's Director of US Fire Training. I am interested in collaborating with FLN participants from all kinds of landscapes and institutions to figure out what training we would like, to further prepare our fire workforce to conduct ecologically-driven fire management at the landscape scale. I am also interested in grappling with how we will prepare our successors to work in fire as it becomes influenced by climate change.
Personally, I am a plant community ecologist and a prescribed burner who learned how to burn the woods in the Midwest and Southeast. I have worked with The Nature Conservancy since 1986 as a land manager, volunteer coordinator and project director. I am returning to the Conservancy after five years working on my Ph.D. in fire science, emphasizing community-based fire management.
Please call me if you would like to trade notes. Better yet, let's work on the fireline together.
Sincerely,
Mary Huffman
