She comes to TILT with a diverse suite of environmental, administrative and marketing skills that will prove invaluable to the organization.

TILT’s Director of Development, Terra Bach, stated, “As we continue to make strides in protecting our environment, Bridgett's unique skills will undoubtedly contribute to enhancing our reach and engagement. We are excited about the positive impact she will bring to our team and the invaluable role she will play in amplifying TILT's conservation initiatives.
