Harrison has always had a passion for the environment, spending his childhood summers on the Chesapeake Bay & in forests and fields in Maryland & Delaware. His love of nature & natural curiosity led him to attend Salisbury University for his Bachelor’s of Science and later Clemson University for his Master’s of Science in Wildlife & Fisheries Biology. His enthusiasm for the great outdoors & dedication to ensuring all students have opportunities to learn & explore outside led to a career in environmental education where he worked for non-profits leading K-12 environmental education efforts across several Mid-Atlantic states including Maryland, Delaware, North & South Carolina.

Harrison is excited to join the Education team at Blandy to help foster deeper connections between students, parents and teachers with their local environment through exploration, experiential lessons & student-led research.
