Description

Armando Quintero spent 22 years with the National Park Service.
Now, Armando is the Executive Director of the Sierra Nevada
Research Institute at The University of California,
Merced. 

When Armando left his career as parks, he knew his background
would allow him to be an advocate for parks from the
outside. 

Experience from the inside and the outside of parks has given
Armando a unique perspective of our parks and their place in our
society. Armando discusses the importance of adaptive leadership in
parks. 

Armando recommends The Forest
