As a young man, Walter enjoyed beautiful sunsets in the Catskill Mountains that literally overwhelmed him with peace and contentment. His passion for the outdoors coupled with a belief that our promise to civilization lies in the quality and breadth of education are what led him to become a NatureBridge board member. As a board member, Walter hopes to be a good fundraiser, to assist in strategic and organizational development and to create an engaged and energetic Olympic regional board. He serves as a finance and analytics consultant for firms and government agencies in Seattle, Washington.
