About the speaker:

A native Oregonian, Jeremy has followed his passion for biology by working on various projects with birds, trees and plants across the state. Beginning in 2012, Jeremy spent two summers with ONDA conducting aspen inventories at Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge and surveying for invasive plant species, after which he joined the team full-time to manage our work in the Greater Hart-Sheldon Region. When he is not out enjoying the natural world, Jeremy enjoys playing music with friends and family, backcountry skiing, hiking, and working in the yard.
