She has also worked for Southwick Associates, where she assisted with media, communications and the development of surveys on issues affecting hunting and fishing.
“We are excited to welcome Sara to the CSF team. She brings policy and communications experience that will undoubtedly help the organization to continue its mission and protect and advance the sportsmen’s heritage in the halls of government,” stated CSF President Jeff Crane.
Growing up in Colorado, and graduating from the University of Colorado-Boulder with a bachelor’s in Environmental Policy and Atmospheric/Oceanic Science, Sara has an appreciation for the conservation of public lands and natural resources.
“I am very excited to join CSF and apply my understanding of environmental science and policy with my love for outdoor recreation. I look forward to working to advance the interests of America’s hunters and anglers.
Studies conducted at both the state and federal level have found that the number of hunters and trappers have been on a generally declining trend over the past several decades. To increase recruitment, retention, and reactivation (R3) of hunters and trappers, which initiative do you think would have the greatest impact?
