The Board of Directors of the Mojave Desert Land Trust has selected a new executive team to lead the organization as it enters a new era in its land conservation work. Cody Hanford and Kelly Herbinson will serve as joint Executive Directors, when outgoing Executive Director Geary Hund steps down on October 31.
Hanford and Herbinson will share overall responsibility for organizational leadership. They bring a wealth of conservation experience, and their appointments signal the Trust’s desire to work creatively to fulfill its ambitious desert preservation agenda. As joint Executive Directors, they will use their complementary skillsets to build on MDLT’s achievements and create an increasingly innovative and enduring organization. The Trust recently surpassed the milestone of 100,000 acres conserved since its founding 15 years ago. It has conveyed more tracts of land to the National Park Service than any nonprofit since 2006.
