Kaela Belle Sirois
Kaela first found her passion in agriculture and plant systems through a research paper for a traditional English class. Little did she know that the paper would transform her perspective on the world and her place within it. Kaela’s aim is to understand how plants interact with one another in order to design living systems that restore ecosystems while supporting human use.
Kaela has earned an associate degree in Business Studies from San Diego Mesa Community College and is currently pursuing a B.S. in Environmental Science with a minor in GIS Systems at the University of San Diego. This academic path has been complemented by seven years of hospitality experience, where she developed and refined skills in public engagement, conflict resolution, and multitasking under pressure. She is now applying these skills as a Conservation Assistant, overseeing SDBA’s habitat restoration events while continuing to build her knowledge of bird and plant identification and ecology.
