About the Instructor:
Joshua Gant, or Josh, began his journey at Ocean County College. After earning his Associates Degree in Environmental Studies, he moved on to Stockton University’s Environmental Studies Program earning his Bachelor of Science in Environmental Studies. He now Works as a Park Naturalist at Wells Mills County Park. But of course, that is not all he does. Most of Josh’s free time is spent birding and studying for his Master’s degree also through Stockton University. He hopes to become a collegiate professor someday but wants to spend more time studying in the field before he makes that dream a reality. He loves birds and is glad to bring you this class dedicated to learning more about our avian friends.
