Hello, my name is Annie Cox and I have just begun working with Chris Feurt at the Coastal Training Program.

My first few weeks have been busy! So far I have met the planning team for the Salmon Falls Watershed Collaborative; met our CTP neighbors at Great Bay while attending the New Hampshire Coastal Adaptation Workgroup's Water Weather Climate Community workshop; and attended the Natural Resource Providers’ Summit that was held here on the eighth of December. I am excited about working more closely with these groups and getting to know our other partners.

In the New Year I will be trained to deliver the workshop Forging the Link to municipalities and land trusts. Forging the Link focuses on the economic incentives of Low Impact Development (LID).

A bit about myself; I grew up in Newcastle, Maine (though you can’t call me a native Mainer). I studied Biology at the University of Maine at Farmington. I served two years with the Peace Corps in a rural Zambian village teaching sustainable agriculture and aquaculture. In June I received a MA from the Conway School of Sustainable Landscape Planning and Design. I live in Portland with my husband and our two-year-old dog Moose. I am thrilled to be working at the reserve and becoming a part of the community!
