I am a post-baccalaureate student in the Rangeland Resource Science program at Cal Poly Humboldt. Prior to returning to school, I worked as a sustainability consultant where I learned about resource management in the built environment. While working on large-scale waste management studies I became interested in learning about natural resource management. While pursuing my second bachelor’s degree I interned for NRCS Idaho and competed on the Collegiate Soil Judging team. My research project is focused on understanding the ecological conditions which may influence Pleuropogon hooverianus development.

Hi! My name is Hazel Goode. I am a Botany Student minoring in Wildland Soils in my final year at Humboldt. I grew up in the foothills of the Sierra Nevadas and have always loved being outside. I became interested in rangelands working alongside a Rangeland Specialist/ Botanist for the Tahoe National Forest and have come to deeply appreciate their beauty and diversity. In my free time I love to kayak, create art, and spend time in the woods. My favorite gramminoid is Carex utriculata!

Hi, I am Ashley and I’m a Rangeland Resource Science major with a Minor in Botany. Some of my hobbies include enjoying anything outdoors including foraging, hiking, camping, and pressing plants. I also really enjoy journaling, scrapbooking/creating collages, and thrifting. In the future it would be really cool work in land conservation/ and or conducting plant surveys for government agencies. I have a passion for plants and I really enjoy learning new plant species everyday.
