Megan Gladbach (decd.)

Megan grew up in Kansas City and attended Johnson County Community College (JCCC) in Overland Park, KS. There, she received an AA in Liberal Arts and an AS in General Sciences before transferring to Prescott College in Arizona, where she has lived for the past three years. She graduated from Prescott with a B.S. in Environmental Studies & Sustainability with an emphasis in Agroecology and minors in Environmental Education and Cultural and Regional Studies in August 2017. Since then, she has worked as a teaching assistant and student coordinator at the Ecosa Institute in Prescott, where she received certification in Regenerative Ecological Design. Many of her previous experiences from coursework, employment, and extra-curricular activities have enabled her to assist with a variety of tasks related to the Land Institute’s research programs. In botany, biology, soil science, seed saving and conservation, entomology, global information science, and ecology courses, she identified appropriate methods for recording and analyzing data and learned to effectively articulate complex messages to diverse audiences in various formats. Megan will be deeply missed by The Land Institute community.
