🎉 Alumni Spotlight! 🎉
We are thrilled to celebrate Recreation, Parks, and Sport Management alum (MS Class of 2016), Joy Shindler Rafey, on an incredible professional achievement!

Joy recently co-edited The Maryland Master Naturalist’s Handbook, published by Johns Hopkins University Press — a major project years in the making, with contributions from over 10 expert authors. The book officially launched on June 3rd and is sure to become a key resource for naturalists and educators across the state. 🌿📚

Joy shared, “My work is still informed by my studies in the Master’s program, and I’m truly proud and grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from program faculty and my classmates.”

Congratulations on this amazing accomplishment, Joy! Your passion for environmental education and stewardship continues to inspire. 💚
