Lauren Ellenbecker is a journalist who shares stories about the Pacific Northwest’s environmental intricacies, how degradation manifests within its landscapes, who is impacted and what is being done about it. Lauren’s reporting has brought her to scorched old growth forests, rivers altered by antiquated logging operations and the dining table of a homeowner who fears their life will be swept away in a flood. These experiences contain multitudes of personal, scientific and thought-provoking tales, all of which converge with the perseverance, recovery and transformation of both humans and the environment. Now, Lauren continues to expand her knowledge but from a different angle: working alongside those moving the needle in ecosystem research and recovery. She supports the Cramer Fish Sciences team by preparing, executing and delivering proposals so they can find steadfast solutions for fish populations across the Pacific Northwest. Lauren continues to write often, whether it’s compiling a proposal, freelancing or weaving together a poem about the wonders of nature.
