Christopher has been a student of the natural world and outdoors since childhood. Growing up in southern NY, he received his Eagle Scout award from the Boy Scouts of America and recently received a masters degree in freshwater ecology. His research and recreation have brought him all over the country, from the tundra of Alaska, to peaks in Utah, to streams and wetlands in the southeast. Returning to the northeast as a Portland, Maine resident, Christopher seeks to give back to the forests, rivers and coast he grew up with by promoting conservation and accessibility of the outdoors to people of all ethnic, social and economic backgrounds.
