Abby Bezrutczyk Selected to be an Intern for the Land Alliance’s 2018 O’Neil Conservation Steward Program.

We are delighted to welcome Abby Bezrutczyk as a 2018 O’Neil Conservation Steward.

Abby is a sophomore at Cornell University studying environmental sciences and plant science. She has fueled her interest in conservation by working in an invasive plants lab and with specimens at Bailey Herbarium. Abby has experience doing field work and is an avid gardener. This summer she is looking forward to learning more about the natural places of Long Island where she grew up.
