He attended the University of New Hampshire from 1988-1995 and received a Bachelor’s degree in Water Resources Management (1992) and a Master’s in Zoology (1995). From 1996-1998, he was in Nepal as a Peace Corps volunteer working on watershed conservation projects in the Himalaya near the Tibetan border. In 1998 he returned to the U.S. and began work for the National Marine Fisheries Service in Alaska, first as a fisheries specialist and then soon after as the Steller Sea Lion Recovery Coordinator in the Protected Resources Division. While in Alaska he was the lead on drafting numerous high-profile section 7 consultations under the Endangered Species Act and was the coordinator for a recovery plan for Steller Sea Lions. He also did a 6-month in Portland, Oregon, working on various recovery plans for listed salmon species in the Columbia River. Shane and his family moved back to the lower-48 in 2007 to work with Western and was elected as the Technical Work Group Chair in July 2008. Shane has also served on the Biology Committee and is currently the alternate on the Management committee for the upper basin recovery program.
