Hello!

Hello everyone! My name is Josh Wennergren, and I am brand new to the USEE team. In May of 2011, I graduated from Westminster College with a degree in environmental studies with an emphasis on culture, and I am very eager to put my studies and passion for the environment into action.

While studying environmental studies, I was particularly drawn to environmental literature. Authors like Don DeLillo, Peter Matthiessen, Jack Turner, Daniel Quinn, and many others have greatly influenced my dedication to environmentalism.


I grew up in Salt Lake City, where I have spent most of my life skiing, hiking, climbing, and fly fishing, in our mountains. I love reading, traveling, live music, and learning about different philosophies and cultures.


I have a strong desire to strengthen our community and greatly expand environmental awareness throughout our city and state, so I am very excited to work with USEE!
