She then joined the Public Affairs office of the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and co-founded the Wildlife Conservation Society's Adirondack Communities and Conservation Program. Together with the Board of Trustees, she has helped to grow the community foundation from $2 million in assets to $130 million, creating a powerhouse of local good.
