We’re excited to celebrate Megan Aubertine-Wilkes, Field Ecologist, for being recognized as Best Speaker at the 2025 New York State Wetlands Forum!
At the conference, Megan presented “Regulatory Shifts in Wetlands Protection: Addressing the Conservation of Threatened and Endangered Plant Species,” a timely and insightful look at how recent changes in New York’s environmental regulations are affecting project planning and wetland conservation. Her presentation stood out among all the sessions, earning the highest speaker evaluation rating from attendees. In addition to the formal recognition, Megan also received positive feedback directly from audience members.
This award reflects not only Megan’s expertise in environmental regulations and plant ecology but also her ability to connect with others and accurately communicate complex topics. We’re proud to have her representing EDR and advancing important conversations around wetland protection.
Way to go, Megan!
