Welcome EVLT's new Executive Director, Jessica Foulis!
 
After four years managing the organization's outreach and stewardship programs, Jessica has been chosen to lead the Eagle Valley Land Trust into the future. Her expertise in community conservation, partnership building, and land stewardship, along with the local knowledge and relationships she's built in Eagle County over the last decade have allowed her to start her new role in the fast lane. 
 
"Thanks to Jim's incredible leadership over the past five years, EVLT is in a great position. From here, the possibilities for partnership and conservation are endless. Our work to protect the lands that matter most to our community is more important than ever." - Jessica Foulis
 
Before her work with the Eagle Valley Land Trust, Jessica worked for American Rivers, Walking Mountains Science Center, and also completed her master’s degree in Human Dimensions of Natural Resources at Colorado State University.
