Ricardo Rodriguez started in January as the Bilingual Park Ranger for the Visitor Services program and will be working for the refuges, primarily at Ankeny National Wildlife Refuge at the Ankeny Hill Nature Center. He
recently worked at Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area for the BLM here in Oregon where he led
educational walks, conducted research and presented interpretive programs to the public. Ricardo earned a B.S. degree in Molecular and Cell Biology from the University of California at Merced, and is from southern California. He is fluent in Spanish, has experience translating written materials, and will be a huge asset for our
Latino Engagement program. Ricardo enjoys hiking and cycling, and exploring the outdoors.
