CBF’s Digital Engagement and Social Media Manager, Rebecca Long
Rebecca is a life long Washingtonian and grew up exploring the lands and waters of the watershed at her back door, the Potomac. Rebecca currently serves as CBF's Digital Engagement and Social Media Manager and is always looking for the next opportunity to get CBF to go viral—in the good way.
She has a degree in environmental geology from the University of Mary Washington. Prior to joining CBF, Rebecca worked on community outreach and digital communications for Potomac Conservancy, the EPA, and American Rivers.
In her free time, Rebecca enjoys paddling the Bay's many rivers and streams, honing her outdoor photography skills, hanging out with her cat, Little Dude, and playing third base for one of her three summer softball leagues.
