Zoe Smith
My name is Zoe Smith, and I’m a sophomore at Feather River College. I am currently pursuing an associates degree in environmental science and plan to graduate from FRC in the spring of 2025. After obtaining my associates degree, I plan to transfer to the University of Nevada, Reno, to pursue a masters degree in rangeland ecology and management, or natural resources. After I am done with my studies, I hope to work in the state of Nevada as either a Rangeland Management Specialist or a Natural Resource Manager. In either of these careers, I am looking forward to putting my best effort towards helping manage both rangelands and natural resources to contribute to the conservation efforts of both Nevada’s wildlife and rangelands. I grew up enjoying the outdoors with my family, hunting, fishing, and exploring the Nevada desert. Throughout all these adventures, I developed a love for the outdoors and the western lifestyle. That being said, I have always known that I wanted to have a career where the outdoors could be my office. Looking towards the future, I am excited to eventually serve my home state and make a positive impact on wildlife and rangeland conservation efforts to keep our state thriving for future generations to enjoy. I would like to thank the NBU scholarship committee for choosing me as one of the recipients of the 2024 NBU Legacy scholarship. I am extremely honored to have been chosen to receive a scholarship from an organization that contributes so much to enhancing Nevada’s wildlife, natural resources, and the sportsmen lifestyle. This scholarship will be a tremendous help in funding my studies throughout my next year of college, and I could not be more grateful.
