New CNHP employee: Jeremy Sueltenfuss

January 11, 2013

After receiving a bachelor’s degree from Colorado College, my wife and I moved to Venezuela for two years, where we both taught at an international private school.  Teaching middle and high school science was a great way to pass on my passion for the natural world to young eager minds.  After teaching for two years, we moved back to Colorado for me to complete a Master’s degree from Colorado State University.

Though most of my undergraduate research
focused on the response of various wildlife communities to forest management,
my interest in wetlands brought me to CSU to look at the impacts of irrigation
in the west on wetland ecosystems.  Agricultural diversions have severely
degraded the majority of western rivers, but leaky earthen canals transporting
this water over large distances create a substantial amount of wetland area
across our otherwise arid landscape.  After graduating in the summer of
2012 I worked on a wetland restoration project for the National Park
Service.   Historic land use at Florissant Fossil Beds had
channelized a wet meadow in the area.  We filled each of the channels and
restored the natural hydrologic regime within the valley.  After this
great experience CNHP hired me as a wetland ecologist and GIS specialist and I couldn’t
 be
happier!
