Stephanie Tyski

Watershed Science Communication Fellow

2022 M.S. Natural Resources Conservation, Paul Smith’s College

Stephanie Tyski Rock worked at the Paul Smith’s College VIC as a naturalist for three years while working on her B.S. in Park and Conservation Management at PSC through the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic helped her to realize that she wanted to continue her schooling which led to her graduating in 2022 from PSC with an M.S. in Natural Resources Conservation. During her schooling, Stephanie developed a strong interest in how people interact and learn about the environment through technology, especially through video games. Joining the AWI's team in 2022 as the Watershed Science Communication Fellow is allowing her to pursue that passion while expanding her knowledge on being a science communicator. She is also the head coach for the Paul Smith’s College Esports Team. In the warm weather months, Stephanie can be found birding and fly fishing while the winter months brings her inside to practice her violin or play video games.

The Watershed Science Communication Fellow is supported by Lake Champlain Sea Grant.
