Our People

After obtaining her Science Degree at the University of Ottawa, Myriam got involved with not-for-profits, contributing to the preservation of the massive urban Boucher Forest. Her passion for biology, science popularization and sustainable lifestyles brought her to the Rockies where she made Fernie her home.

Founder of the Rocky Mountain Education Series, Dawn Deydey brings the experience and understanding of for over a decade of Beyond Recycling coordination and development to the table. As Community Program Coordinator for the Wildsight Elk Valley Branch, her ability to weave environmental education and community action into successful programming that moves our community towards sustainability has been proven repeatedly.

After over a decade as a performing arts designer, Jennifer arrived in Fernie in late 2020. With a passion for local and more sustainable food systems, she joined Wildsight that winter to help establish the Local store. She loves a worthy challenge, walking in the woods,  and making things beautiful.
