Adrien joined the CARCD Forestry team in January of 2024. She has a B.S. from UC Davis in Community and Regional Development. Living her whole life between the Pacific Ocean and the Sierras, she has always loved being outside and first learned of forestry as a child attending the California State Fair. Community access to and protection of land have always been great passions of hers. She developed project and grant management skills working with agricultural-based organizations in the Bay Area and is especially fond of spreadsheets. When not working for CARCD, she practices and teaches classical pilates. In her free time, she can be found on a blanket in the park reading books about elves, dragons, and other fun creatures.
