Steve Hagenbuch

Steve (he/him) has worked with Audubon in a variety of roles since 1998. Currently, he is the Senior Program Manager, Forests. In this position, Steve advances work with private landowners, municipalities, foresters, and land managers to promote management activities that will enhance the habitat value of forestland for priority bird species.

His graduate research investigated the implications of maple sugarbush management for Neotropical migrant songbirds. When not in the woods on business Steve can still be found there - hiking, mountain biking, backcountry skiing, fly-fishing, or whatever else seems like fun. Steve, his wife Dana, and their two teen-aged children live on an 1850's farm in Waterbury Center, VT.
