Michelle was born and raised in Hector, New York right next to the Finger Lakes National Forest.  She is a graduate of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at Cornell University and majored in Agriculture Science Education and Environmental Engineering Technology.  She gained administrative experience working with several non-profit organizations in college and directly after college.  Her educational experiences include volunteering in local classrooms and teaching outdoor education classes at a state park in North Dakota and an Environmental Education Center in Mississippi.
