Background

About Julia Edwards

As a park ranger at Stark County Park District, I enforce state laws and park ordinances to protect the environment and ensure public safety. I have over seven years of experience in law enforcement, working in various parks across Ohio, including Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Summit Metro Parks, and Stark Parks. My passion for environmental education and conservation led me to pursue a degree in Environmental Studies with a minor in Earth Science and Geography at Kent State University. I’ve applied my academic knowledge and skills to my work as a park ranger by leading and assisting with a variety of programs and projects, such as fishing, birding, trail restoration, and invasive species removal. I’ve also gained hands-on experience in bird banding, a technique used to monitor and study bird populations. My enthusiasm for nature and my dedication to protecting it drive me to be an effective educator and advocate for the environment.
