The Sempervirens Fund’s mission is to help redwood forests thrive in the Santa Cruz mountain range by establishing a large, interconnected, and protected network of healthy trees and streams, stretching across public and private lands. Melisa’s interest in nature began with helping her grandpa plant trees in her family’s home state of Michoacan, Mexico. Graduating college in Illinois with a Bachelor of Science in Biology, she spent summers at home leading volunteer programs with Friends of the Chicago River before moving to California. Since then, she has worked in rehabilitation, land stewardship and environmental education at Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy, Grassroots Ecology, and Arastradero Preserve.

Melisa joined Sempervirens Fund in 2021 and is currently an M.S. candidate at the University of San Francisco for Environmental Management. She is an avid backpacker and lover of sunsets, and plans hiking adventures throughout the west coast in her free time.
