Meet Hannah Kett, Urban Program Director
Meet Courtney Baxter, Program & Communication Specialist
Meet Emily Howe, Aquatic Ecologist
I am an aquatic ecologist at The Nature Conservancy’s cities, land, and water programs. I hold a Ph.D. from the School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences at the University of Washington, with a focus on estuarine restoration and food web ecology in tidally-influenced ecosystems. My work integrates across ecosystem boundaries, investigating how landscape configuration and management shapes cross-boundary relationships for food webs, organisms, and ecosystem processes.
