Anna Willig

While pursuing her Bachelor of Arts in Conservation Biology at Middlebury College, Anna joined our Watershed Protection Team as an intern in 2018. During the summers of 2019 and 2020 she conducted research on nitrogen fixation in mosses and studied stream salamander ecology at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest before returning to our team in 2021. As a Watershed Conservation Research and Data Specialist, Anna assists with monthly water chemistry sampling, maintains the tree planting at Ashbridge Preserve, and analyzes water quality data from sampling and from our EnviroDIY sensors. Out of the stream, Anna enjoys going on walks with friends, family and dogs, and tending to her veggie garden.

I love the variety of work that is done at Willistown and the ability to learn about all the different departments.
