Erin Cord joined the BCI staff in 2019 and is thrilled to be coordinating BCI’s new Bat Walk Program. Erin double majored in Wildlife Conservation and Entomology from the University of Delaware and received her MS in Wildlife Ecology from the Cesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute at Texas A&M University-Kingsville investigating the impact of invasive grasses on arthropod functional groups.  She has a special affinity for pollinators and is excited to have the opportunity to focus on bats! Erin has over 10 years of experience working as a wildlife biologist and running environmentally-focused volunteer programs. She is happiest working at the intersection of science communication and citizen empowerment. Erin loves working with volunteers and getting people excited about environmental stewardship and wildlife conservation.
