Sam Ellis
Environmental Education AmeriCorps Service Member
Sam graduated with a Jazz degree from Shepherd University, where he enjoyed walks through Shepherdstown and the nearby C&O Canal area. During his college summers, he served as an AmeriCorps VISTA in Morgan County, where he spent his time engaging kids in fun, educational activities.
As an AmeriCorps serving with PVAS, Sam is excited to be learning more about the natural world and helping others to learn as well. The PVAS preserves, community, and staff are a flourishing spring of knowledge that makes every step something extraordinary. In his non-AmeriCorps time, Sam plays guitar, reads books, and sips tea with honey.
