Heather B: Bringing A World of Communications to Vermont

Heather is the tall one in the middle of this game of "What time is it Mr. Fox?"  Besides being an English teacher to these children in Tanzania, Heather is a social media junkie, and  lover of all things outdoors.

Heather B. is a Brattleboro native who has recently returned to the area to join the Vermont Woods Studios marketing team. She earned her BS in Mass Communication at Champlain College, where she gained a passion for promoting sustainability through her work in communications.  

Other than her obvious talents in marketing and public relations, Heather's resume grabbed our attention when we saw that she spent her spring break doing a service project in Nicaragua assisting in sustainable community development, as Dennis said, "rather than partying in Fort Lauderdale".

Heather completed a summer service trip in Tanzania as well, teaching school children English and participating in many  projects to enhance the community's quality of life.  She did somehow manage to fit a Spring Break trip to Hilton Head in addition to these altruistic excursions so we're relieved to know that Heather likes to have a little fun sometimes, too.  I think she'll fit right in.
