Title:  Jessica Driver of DRBA
Description:  A thoughtful and kind soul with a passion for the natural world, it has been truly a pleasure to work with Jessica Driver in her role as a Dan River Basin Association (DRBA) volunteer. Jessica began working with DRBA through our Danville Citizen Water Quality Monitoring (CWQM) Program, involving year-long monthly stream water sampling and lab testing for the presence of E. Coli bacteria. Jessica quickly became one of our most dedicated citizen scientists, committed to going above and beyond at every opportunity. In 2016 when we added quarterly monitoring for aquatic insects to the program, Jessica enthusiastically added this to her CWQM responsibilities and completed several training hours along with a certification exam (pictured above!) in order to participate in both monitoring methods. It is clear from interacting with Jessica and her attention to detail that she volunteers with DRBA out of a love of learning, passion for discovery, and a deep desire to protect local waterways and her community. In addition to her hours devoted to DRBA, Jessica works for the Virginia Department of Agriculture, has served as an officer with the Southwest Piedmont Chapter of Virginia Master Naturalists, and as a volunteer for Pittsylvania County SPCA and Southside Virginia Wildlife Center. The Dan River area nonprofit community is fortunate to have such a dedicated and caring individual.
