#208: Reconnect with Nature: Dive into Jessica Mann’s Transformative Novel, "Uplift".

Meet Jessica Mann I have loved creative writing since I was young, writing short stories and poetry. Uplift is my debut novel.  I have always loved birds and animals, too, and was inspired to write UPLIFT to give them a voice. What if readers could “see” the world through their eyes? And could a compelling, relatable story help inspire greater respect and compassion for these creatures? Nature Being in nature is where I feel most at home, and it has been a lifelong source of joy and inspiration. I have always been curious and enjoyed learning about the natural world, and this led me to become a Master Naturalist, as well as co-found the Teton Valley chapter. Earlier Work I was founder and CEO of Green Futures Unlimited, a sustainability consultancy.  I also taught at the University of California-San Diego sustainable business program. I was Director of Environmental Health & Safety for Pfizer, Inc. where I was honored  to win the prestigious Pfizer Achievement award. I attended the University of Michigan where I earned a MPH from the School of Public Health and a BS from the School for Environment and Sustainability.
