Interests
My name is Colleen. I live in Columbus, Ohio, and work for the ODNR Division of Forestry. I am the mother of three grown children and the grandmother of two. I love to travel, and one of my favorite things is identifying accents. I like the woods more than the beach and the fall season over the summer, although I do like summer concerts and county fairs. I do not have any pets, as I travel often. I love coffee and always try to find the best coffee shops in a town. A fun fact about me is that I like a variety of music genres; my favorite is music played on the piano.

I started my career in traditional forestry, accumulating 15 years of experience before transitioning to urban forestry. I also worked in an environmental education position for a year. Throughout my career, I have always focused on some aspect of environmental education.
Currently, I serve as an urban forester in Ohio, where my primary focus is promoting tree equity. This involves engaging the public through educational initiatives. I collaborate with NGOs to support their programs and manage state funding allocations. Additionally, I work closely with cities and municipalities to foster citizen engagement, advancing tree equity and environmental justice.
