Prior to joining Western Watersheds,  Nancy spent 20 years as an environmental geologist focusing on NEPA impact analysis and environmental remediation projects.  After becoming a mother, Nancy took time to explore new career options by working as the Office and Risk Manager for a local private school.  Never straying too far from environmental conservation issues, though, she volunteers on the Blaine County Land, Water, and Wildlife Levy Board and has volunteered for a number of local city and non-profit organizations over the years. Geology remains a hobby, and her off time is spent trudging around Idaho learning about local landscapes.
