Dominique Rosario, Education Coordinator for Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge
My name is Dominique Rosario. I grew up in Austin, Texas running around in creek beds, playing in the dirt, and reading anything I could get my hands on. Throughout school I had no idea what I wanted to do in the future but knew I wanted to do something I was passionate about. In college I found Environmental Studies and realized I loved teaching others about the environment and how to help make a positive impact on the area around us. This led me to environmental education and working in the mountains of Colorado where I taught people about the Rocky Mountains while hiking and snowshoeing. Now, I serve as an AmeriCorps member at Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge, near Olympia, educating students about the importance of protecting habitat for migrating birds and salmon populations. Working in environmental education has allowed me to do something I am excited about every day and have fun while doing it.
