Matthew Knittel
Naturalist
Primary Location: Watershed Stewardship Center at West Creek
Matt has enjoyed the outdoors (especially the Cleveland Metroparks) since he was a young boy. Since then, he has not stopped running through forests and meadows and splashing through streams. An MS in Natural Resources and the Environment helps him identify the flora and fauna, and understand their role in the ecosystem. Matt previously worked for ODNR, the Environmental Education Center at Cuyahoga Valley National Park, and various environmental education groups including Creek Connections. He is eager to share his knowledge and experience of the outdoors to anyone willing to learn.
