My name is David Rittenhouse. I've spent most of my life growing up
in Minnesota, and have always held the Mississippi river close to my
heart. From my first visit as a child, to sleeping on its banks as a
young adult. I graduated with a degree in Biology, Society, and the
Environment from the University of Minnesota, and during my time there worked at the Bell Museum of Natural History. I loved my experiences working with children and adults and sharing my enthusiasm for nature, through guiding hands on experiences with all sorts of creepy crawlies like cockroaches, snakes, and turtles, giving tours of Minnesota's wildlife through diorama halls, and leading science summer camp programs. I hope to continue to broaden my experiences in environmental education and gain new experiences in the ways of conservation while in the SCA to prepare me for where ever my life takes me next
