Cassidy is thrilled to be back at ARC after a year away doing field botany and GIS in Colorado. A graduate from University of Utah with degrees in Environmental Studies and Geography, she continues to pursue ecology and wildlife conservation positions in order to grow a career protecting native species. After working for the IMMP crew in 2024, she is excited to join the Colony crew and visit more places on Kaua’i. Traveling to new countries in her off time between seasonal roles has kept her inspired to continue working jobs that help protect the plants and animals we all coexist with. In her free time she enjoys scuba diving, snowboarding, surfing, crochet, and quality time with friends.
