We catch up with Adrian Huq – a new, and decidedly accomplished, member of our Board of Directors. Adrian has done – is doing – so many wonderful things that it’s hard to keep track: they are currently a grad student at the Yale School of the Environment; they are a cohort member of the Nonprofit Management Program for Emerging Leaders of Color under the Community Foundation for Greater New Haven; they serve as cofounder of the New Haven Climate Movement Youth Action Team, which advocates for bold climate policy change on the city level; and let’s not forget that Adrian has worked across four summers as a Sustainable CT Fellow, working with both the Naugatuck Valley and Capitol Region Councils of Governments. This month, please join us for a view from the Boardroom with Adrian Huq.

Brian Hess is a Wildlife Biologist with the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP), where he specializes in non-game wildlife, particularly large raptors, reptiles, amphibians, and various other herpetofauna (and, yes, we had to look that word up). He is a leading authority on Connecticut's growing bald eagle population and the public face for many related outreach efforts. He shares his public face - or at least his public voice - with us. Be sure to catch the action.
