As an officer of the board for the CMCHGS, Bobbi specializes in the inclusive preservation of local histories and public accessibility. Bobbi has integrated her cross-disciplinary experience into the development of high-impact learning opportunities for undergraduate students at Stockton University in laboratory, field, and archival settings. Through her programming, students learn about the importance of applying ethical standards and decolonizing frameworks to cultural resource management, the promotion of inclusive histories, and what studying the life-history of landscapes can tell us about the relationships between diverse cultural identities.
