Eastern Region Manager, Department of Conservation and Natural Resources
I organize and manage the overall operation and maintenance of State Parks in the Eastern Region.
In Nevada State Parks, we have many different responsibilities and most days are never the same. In day to day operations, we manage campgrounds, provide visitor services to provide the special "Park Experience" our visitors are looking for, we manage visitor centers, build and maintain trails, maintain facilities, provide safety and security for our visitors, maintain and develop landscapes, protect cultural and natural resources, and interpret all aspects of park resources.
Here's the first step for everyone
Find someone in the field and see if you can go visit them and pick their brain. The insight from someone who already works in the field every day is very valuable.
