Jen Clifford

National Capital Region Invasive Plant Management Team

Fall 2024

Hailing from Kittery Point, ME, Jen is excited to make her debut with the National Capital Region’s Invasive Plant Management Team as a CVA! Jen graduated from Vassar College in 2023 with a B.A. in Geography and a minor in Education. She has always had a love of nature that she deepened through summer internships with land trusts in her home state and wanted to pursue a career in land conservation after graduating college.
Jen started her postgrad life as a member of AmeriCorps Cape Cod, spending 11 months building trails, shellfishing, hosting environmental education fairs, and rescuing stranded dolphins with her cohort. Additionally, she worked with a local land trust to research biodiversity on the Cape and implement a community science initiative for reporting rare species. Jen’s time on Cape Cod holds a special place in her heart for everything it taught her about how people can be effective stewards and learn from the land.
In her free time, Jen enjoys hiking, reading manga, and contra dancing. She is always eager to explore new places and is excited to make lasting connections with volunteers in the National Capital Region!
