Teresa Tibstra - Membership Assistant

As a transplant from Fresno, CA, recently moved to the area not knowing anyone and looking for a new direction in her career. She found The Land Conservancy, really believed in their mission and their commitment to the community, and found herself volunteering for them for almost a year before officially joining the staff.

For the past eight years, Teresa was an elementary school teacher and prior to that, she spent some time teaching English to international students at the American English Institute. Teresa has an MBA with a Marketing emphasis, a BA in Linguistics and Liberal Studies, and a California Multiple Subject Teaching Credential.

In her leisure time, Teresa can be found with her nose in a book or tromping around Morro Bay with her husband Robb and their 4-legged child, Jannu. Teresa and Robb are busy getting ready for their first 2-legged child expected in the spring. She enjoys baking, traveling, visiting vintage VW shows, and home improvement projects.
