Ruth Dickey-Chasins
Ruth Dickey-Chasins lives in northern Virginia and serves as CBF's Digital Marketing and Engagement Manager. Despite growing up in the cornfields of Iowa, she has always found the most joy when splashing around a lake, river, or any other body of water.
Ruth has a B.A. from Smith College and an MPH in Environmental Health from the George Washington University. Prior to joining CBF, she worked in outreach and environmental communications for a variety of nonprofits.
Outside of work, Ruth can often be found container gardening, relaxing outside with her nose in a book, or exploring her favorite watershed trails along the banks of the Potomac.
