Kaydee is a business consultant/communicator turned soil ecologist, currently pursuing a PhD in Earth and Environmental Science at the University of Manchester (UK). Her research aims to inform better stewardship of soils to enhance ecosystem health and long-term carbon storage, with a particular focus on understanding plant-fungal symbiotic relationships. Her love of nature and of people has fueled her growth into an activist and ecologist, from her beginning days as a Colorado ranch kid to her days “dirtbagging” around the world and founding a non-profit with her husband Devon, finally to her formal education and training at Colorado State University and the University of Manchester. This dual passion for people and the planet continues to drive her, and she recharges by traveling and participating in outdoor activities (hiking, biking, running, climbing, diving, paddling, you name it!) with Devon and their dog, Sadie.
