Sterling joins the DRC WildCorps halfway through the season with hopes of complimenting and contributing-to an already impressive team of desert restoration champions. This is his fifth SCA endeavor but first purely-restoration experience after primarily trail-maintenance crews. He looks forward to expanding his pallete of conservation techniques as well as practicing data collection and mapping.
Sterling grew up in Maine, went to school in New York, moved to Los Angeles and then Portland, Oregon before taking full time work on the nation's public lands affording him the opportunity to travel The West in a variety of pickup trucks. In his free time Sterling enjoys hiking, making art, eating, not hiking and live music.
