About Me
Name: Jenna Bader
- I'm a transfer student from Santa Monica College, currently working on my BS degree in Environmental Science; Energy and Climate with a Minor in Metal Scultpure at Humboldt State University. I love being outdoors, discovering new places, gaining perspective, and seeking new opportunities to explore and learn. River trips, hiking with my dog, biking, playing at the beach, being in the presence of uplifting music, and hanging out with good people are a few things that keep me balanced. Check out my links for some fun facts, info, current news, and beautiful pictures of our planet and what's beyond it..
