Brenna "Turkey Tail" O'Halloran
she/her
Brenna grew up in Minnesota and her love of nature grew by leaps and bounds when she attended high school at the School of Environmental Studies. She couldn’t spend enough time outdoors. A Conservation Biology major at the University of Wisconsin-Madison led her to study abroad in the Amazon rainforest, Galapagos islands, and the dry coastal forest in Ecuador. After college, Brenna had the wonderful opportunity to be a naturalist intern at the Sierra Outdoor School in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. One of her favorite assignments was learning to handle a Great Horn Owl while teaching in front of her students. From there, Brenna lived in Thailand for two years teaching English to kindergarten and high school students. She loves Thai food, learning about different cultures, and meeting people from around the world! This past year, she taught students in the redwoods, tidal pools, and beach at Exploring New Horizons. She loves exploring, learning about and appreciating nature with kids.
