The National Board is the governing body of the Women In Environment organization. We support Chapters through financial grants, the development and maintance of centralized systems and processes, as well as the setting the overall strategic objectives for WIE. We are grateful to be in this community and passionate about providing women with opportunties to connect and grow. We would love to hear from you if you are interested in getting more involved with WIE, in forming an Emerging Chapter, or becoming a sponsor.

Meet our Board of Directors

  • Danille Jorgensen - President

    President

    Danille has been an active participant of WIE for 15 years, and currently serves as the President of the National Board. She is also on the Board of Directors for Wild Hearts Idaho, a non-profit focused on building leadership in girls through outdoor adventures and served for 3 years on the Board of Directors for Landau Associates. When she’s not wrangling data at Landau Associates, Dani enjoys doing pretty much anything outside, spending time with her beloved Labrador and performing culinary experiments (current obsession = ice cream). Danille is highly committed to the success of WIE, and loves being part of a such a positive and supportive community.
