Interns

Brian Fitzgerald, Intern

Brian hails from Trumbull, Connecticut, but has called the Granite State home since studying at the University of New Hampshire in Durham. In 2010 Brian graduated with a B.S. in Environmental Conservation Studies focusing in Educational Outreach.

During his time at UNH, the allure of the White Mountains soon became an obsession as Brian tackled all forty-eight of New Hampshire's four-thousand footers. His fascination and background in the environment soon landed him with a position working as a backcountry hut naturalist for the Appalachian Mountain Club, where Brian found himself reading weather reports from the Mount Washington Observatory to visitors in the White Mountain National Forest.

In addition to his work in the mountains, Brian has interned with the Forest Society in Concord, NH and taught after school naturalist programs to elementary school students in the Seacoast of New Hampshire. During free time, Brian has been known to enjoy listening to public radio, reading, baking and cooking and is a budding banjoist who is hoping to bring a little Appalachian twang to the summit of Mount Washington.

Brian has been looking up weather forecasts and into the skies from an early age and is more than excited for the opportunity to experience a winter (and perpetually shoveling) at the home of "the world's worst weather".
