Natasha joined the Yosemite Sequoia Resource Conservation and Development Council as a Project Manager, bringing a strong background in education, data-informed planning, and community-focused leadership. A California native, she has spent most of her life in Mariposa and throughout Central California, where she and her family have long valued rural life and the responsibility of caring for California’s land and natural systems. She holds a master’s degree in Curriculum and Assessment and is passionate about using data, metrics, and thoughtful strategy to support effective decision-making and long-term project success. In addition to her professional experience, she has owned and operated a small business for over a decade, strengthening her skills in management, organization, and collaborative problem-solving. With a personal connection to wildfire resilience through her husband’s work as a firefighter, Natasha understands the importance of proactive partnerships and coordination across agencies, landowners, and communities—especially during California’s increasingly complex fire seasons. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time outdoors with her husband and two young daughters, exploring the region’s lakes, rivers, trails, and campgrounds. She also loves reading, paddle boarding, making homemade pasta and sourdough, and traveling to experience new landscapes and destinations.
