Doug Bridgers, President, was raised in New Mexico, graduated from UNM with a degree in Spanish and has a strong interest in New Mexico’s local cultural traditions. A former elementary school teacher, Doug brings his teaching experience and concerns for public education to Rivers & Birds. Doug states, “My own spiritual grounding is in the natural world that surrounds us. Too many children today lack direct contact with their community and the natural world on which they depend. Education must broaden the student’s base of authentic experience if we are to raise good stewards.” Doug now manages Maya Construction, a business that focuses on building energy efficient, environmentally sound homes.
