Alyssa coordinates landowner outreach and easement drafting with particular attention to the South River.  From 2006 - 2008, she was a Peace Corps Volunteer in the mountains of northern Peru. While there, she worked on community-based environmental projects, focusing on solid waste management and environmental education, and became fluent in Spanish. Her Peruvian experience sparked her passion for working with local groups to protect the environment, which has translated well to working in land protection in Anne Arundel County.   She received her B.A. from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, where she studied environmental science and urban planning.  She is currently enrolled in the Watershed Stewardship Academy and is a member of the Bacon Ridge Natural Area Stewardship Committee.
