With nearly a decade of experience in restoration ecology, Mitchell has developed a passion for stream and wetland restoration projects. His love for the outdoors started in childhood, when his love of fishing grew into a fascination of how the feeding patterns and behavior of fish affect streams.?
Today, Mitchell is a restoration ecologist working on a range of creek restoration and wetland mitigation projects. He handles projects from early project development to long-term management. He believes his work helps improve environmental quality and makes the world a better place for everyone. One project he is excited about involves restoring a stream that will eventually become the site of a community park where people can enjoy nature in their own neighborhood.
Away from his work on wetland restoration projects, you¡¯ll find Mitchell fly fishing and observing the ecology of local lakes and rivers¡ªstill learning from the water, just like he did as a kid.
