Guest Bio:
Natalie Edwards spent her childhood growing up in the Pacific Northwest and then moved South to attend Tuskegee University in Tuskegee Alabama. After graduating from Tuskegee, she started her career as a Park Ranger with the US Army Corps of Engineers (Mobile District) and spent her time in Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia. She worked on several lake and river projects and a few hurricane relief/clean ups. After 5 years of being a Park Ranger, Natalie went to work for the Savannah District in the Atlanta Metro area. Where she got the opportunity to experience all kinds of projects and some very interesting personalities.
In 2018, Natalie moved back to Portland Oregon and continued working with the Corps for another 2 years before leaving after 20 years of service. In 2022 Natalie founded Mahogany Environmental & Associates where it has allowed her to meet and forge new opportunities.
