As his title suggests, Aaron wears a lot of hats around here, working as a Motus Technician and Avian Migration Ecologist at Rushton Farm, and you may occasionally see him harvesting produce during the growing season. With a bachelor’s degree in agriculture from Ohio State University, experience in residential garden design, former work as a USFWS Biotechnician, and history as a volunteer for the Maryland DNR Heritage Program, Aaron is a perfect fit at our organization, and has been working with the Trust since 2022. A nature enthusiast, Aaron spends much of his free time birding, gardening, volunteering for various conservation groups, and photographing…you guessed it…nature!
Aaron's favorite part about working at Willistown Conservation Trust?
The diversity of projects, learning from the different areas of staff expertise, interacting with the community during CSA pick-up, bird banding and other public programs, and volunteer workdays on the WCT Nature Preserves.
