Seasonal Coastal Bird Steward | kathryn@alaudubon.org
Born and raised in southwest Missouri, Kathryn spent her early years watching her grandpa work on Bald Eagle surveys for the Missouri Department of Conservation. Her family’s love for the outdoors grew her passion for stewarding the planet and it’s ecosystems well. Kathryn graduated from the University of Mobile with a B.S. in Marine Science in 2019 and has since worked in wildlife rehabilitation in Alabama, North Carolina, and Texas. During this time, she worked with all kinds of animals including snakes, hawks, possums, owls, foxes, otters, sea turtles, pelicans, dolphins, and her favorite – gopher tortoises. When she isn’t pointing up in the sky to tell her friends what kind of bird is flying over at that moment, you can find her paddle boarding, hiking, camping, or hammocking.
