My name is Danielle Dexter and I am from Keene, New Hampshire. I developed a deep love for nature by growing up spending my time in the woods and lakes of NH; hiking, day dreaming, and looking for wildlife. Travel, experiential learning, and service based learning have greatly influenced my education and interests. I am excited to be back in my beautiful home state to learn more about lake conservation while helping to teach the public about all things ecology. Let's hit the trails together!
