SCA NH Corps

Hi, my name is Dylan. I’m 21 and on the cusp of the big 2-2, and I’m from the southern state of Tennessee—though not entirely. I can do 3 pull ups quite easily and I like berries and honey. I’ve been told I sleep too much, but I don’t think I do. In fact, others have said I’m too active. As happy as a bear to be here, and I’m on the look out for porcupines and river otters (you can domesticate them and they’ll catch you fish—both of them). That’s me, Dylan

I enjoy working in the SCA and believe in its mission. I love the forest and spend as much time outdoors as possible

I majored in Physics at the University of Florida. During my studies I had the opportunity to learn and work on a fully sustainable organic farm in India. My experiences in India served as an inspiration to continue to live sustainably and to inspire others to do so. This internship through the SCA New Hampshire corps is a great opportunity for me to inspire children, to teach them about their environment, and to serve our nation and future generations through conservation efforts.

After graduating in May 2010 with a B.S. in Natural Resources Management, I returned to my hometown of Frankfort, Michigan. I then worked as a Biological Technician at Sleeping Bear Dunes where I specialized in invasive plant species. I spent 7 months being a “professional weed puller” before coming to New Hampshire for the SCA Conservation corps program. Previously I have worked with the Nature Conservancy and the Michigan DNR.

I am from Athens, Georgia! I graduated in May of 2010 from the University of Georgia with a degree in International Affairs and a Certificate in Environmental Ethics. I have never lived in a place with a snowy, icy winter before, so this is a new experience in every way. I have worked with kids in nature camps and as an intern in Great Smoky Mountain National Park, and I really love helping them to experience the world (and I love hearing the funny things they say!).

I am somewhat of an unlikely candidate to be in the position I am currently in. I am lazy, unambitious, apathetic, and generally dislike. I am irresponsible and extremely ugly. People often reel in fright then snicker upon introduction to me before apologizing and telling me how sorry they are for delighting in my misfortune. Hah-hah, just kidding. I’m pretty much awesome in every way. I was given the key to the city at age 9 for solving the state-wide “cackling tree-weevil” epidemic of 1998. At age 13, I entered Harvard on a French-Calculus-Culinary triple major where I eventually came to edit the Harvard Law Review in my spare time whilst juggling prior commitments of public appearances promoting my line of semi-autobiographical self-help books of how to date celebrities, as well as ribbon-cutting ceremonies at newly-opened professional sports stadiums and national monuments. After graduating Magna Cum Laude with two and a half Masters’ Degrees in five semesters, I toured around Europe dissolving Eastern Bloc Countries into functioning democracies. I was eventually offered the esteemed position of SCA NH High School Leader and immediately dropped my schedule to participate.

I am a twenty-five year old Liberal Arts major at Purdue University with a passion for the environment and environmental conservation work. I served the SCA through the V. S. Fish and Wildlife Service at Main Coastal Islands, spending 3 months at and around Acadia National Park in the fall of 2010.

I am from Winston-Salem, NC and graduated with a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Ecology and Environmental Biology from Appalachian State University. I love the outdoors, being involved in the community, and laughing.

My name is Lizzy Cantor. I am born and raised in Los Angeles and graduated with a degree in Environmental Studies from UC Santa Cruz. I love working with kids and educating the general public and would like to have a career in environmental education. I believe everyone has a responsibility to the earth and that everything is connected and so have taught lessons on things as diverse as tide pool animals to plastic pollution to religion and ecology, with the hope that people will look at the world a different way and live their lives with greater respect to the systems that sustain us.
