Nicole Jackson is an environmental educator, birder, and co-creator of Black Birders Week. She's also dedicated to connecting people to the environment and each other. As a girl, nature nurtured Nicole growing up on the east side of Cleveland, and much of her career is built around returning the favor.
Throughout our conversation, Nicole gifts us with nature lessons and shares how she's grown into herself as a natural leader and advocate for developing a lifelong relationship with nature.
