Today's theme for is , and I'd like to share .

My name is Fiona O'Kelly, and I have been an Interpretive ranger here at Point Reyes National Seashore for the last six years, on the traditional homelands of Coast Miwok people. I've been a part of the community in West Marin for twenty years now since I first moved here permanently to work as an environmental educator for the Point Reyes National Seashore Association, running a nature & science-based summer camp and school program.

My career in environmental and outdoor education first began back in the mid-90s and led me to work with countless passionate educators who taught me about California native plants and animals, different habitats, and creative and fun activities to share all of these things with students.

I am grateful every day to have built a career out of sharing my love of nature and Point Reyes with countless visitors who pass through from all over the United States and from around the world. I'm grateful for the kids that I taught many years ago coming back and telling me that the deep connections they made here in Point Reyes have led them to continuing exploring the natural world and striving to protect it. I am grateful for my National Park Service co-workers who continue to mentor and inspire me. And I have so much gratitude for the wonderful people in this community of West Marin who share my love of this place.
