My name is Kelly Vogelpohl.  I am officially, Early Childlood Programs Coordinator at Robinson Nature Center, part of Howard County Recreation and Parks, in Howard County, MD.  I teach and oversee the bountiful Early Childhood Programs that take place at Robinson.  My passion lies in connecting/bridging the gap between people and nature and building community around our natural world.  My best days are spent in the forest learning with little ones - climbing trees, jumping in mud puddles, creating nature art, and more.  Personally, I am a mom to three amazing school aged kiddos and the wife of a Park Ranger :).  I am excited to be a part of the NAAEE eepro community.  

I am a passionate conservationist and the creator of 'Pangolin: The Conservation Podcast'. I work for both the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh and the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland. My interests include increasing the accessibility of conservation and highlighting under-appreciated species.

Third-year student at North Carolina State University. Civil Engineering major with an Environmental Education minor.

Hi! My name is Ella Kavanaugh and I'm from Chapel Hill, North Carolina. I am a first-year student at Oberlin College and Conservatory in Oberlin, Ohio and I'm just beginning the North Carolina Environmental Education Certification process! My hope is to gain skills and experience to be the Environmental Discovery Chief at YMCA Camp Kanata in Wake Forest, NC. After this I'll continue my journey in Environmental Education, Conservation and in the NC certification process. I am planning to major in Biology and Environmental Studies at school. One day I hope to be a Conservation Biologist or something similar and make a difference for the climate and natural world. I hope gain experience working with others and with environmental education, including at Piedmont Wildlife Center summer camps and internships, and other opportunities. I love the outdoors and hope to share this with others!
