Faces & Places: Kendal Benesh
Kootenay Conservation Program
An appreciation and love for the natural world is what led Kendal Benesh into the field of biology, but throughout her career she’s discovered a new, yet complementary, passion: bringing people together to solve problems and find efficiencies.
“My role with East Kootenay Invasive Species Council (EKISC) is hitting that straight on the head,” said Kendal, who stepped into the role of program manager for EKISC in March 2019. “Invasive species are going to be here forever. We’re always going to be dealing with new introductions and they will continue to impact people in a variety of ways, so there’s an endless amount of strategy and innovation that needs to be in place with invasive species management.”
