Courtney Thomson
Courtney educates the public through her role managing the League’s Education Center and Store. She works closely with the Community Engagement and Citizen Science teams to provide visitors with information about the challenges facing Lake Tahoe, what the League is doing to address and overcome those challenges, and how the community can become part of the solution. In addition to running the Education Center, she contributes to outreach programs that promote an informed and engaged community to help protect Lake Tahoe.
Courtney joined the League in 2022 with a background in customer service, data management, and environmental education. Before joining the League, her passions for environmental conservation and research led her to volunteer at the Monterey Bay Aquarium and work on wildlife conservation projects in Florida, Costa Rica, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Courtney holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Marine Science from California State University, Monterey Bay.
Courtney enjoys scuba diving, hiking, mountain biking, snowboarding, and spending time with her dog.
