HEADWATERS: CAROL’S STORY

Carol’s life has always been shaped by water — childhood lakes, competitive open‑water swimming, an engineering degree focused on water systems, and years spent as the licensed voice of the ancient Susquehanna River.

Her work blends ecological truth, lived field experience, and poetic insight to help people understand their inner and outer lives through the intelligence of rivers.
