Working in partnership with the NFF’s Southwest Project Coordinator, Adde is developing a new scope of work focused on scaling the use of low-tech, process-based restoration techniques to improve water resiliency across the Colorado River Basin.

Adde holds an M.S. in Environmental Policy and Management from the University of Denver, as well as a B.A. in Environmental Studies from Davidson College. Previously, Adde worked in the land conservancy space, focused on ensuring public access to the outdoor spaces we all love. Adde’s favorite way to experience our cherished public lands is on a mountain bike. When not biking or working, Adde enjoys experimenting with new, homemade ice cream flavors, playing the baritone ukelele, and backcountry skiing with her puppy.
