Biography:

Julianne Schieffer grew up in Milwaukee, WI, the place where that city's colorful boulevards, wonderful parkways and beautiful greened streets first greeted her. Education in Urban Forestry and Botany at the Univ. of Wisconsin - Stevens Point and a master’s degree in Tree Pathology from the Univ. of MASS at Amherst enabled her to coordinate her love of people with plant health. In her current position with Penn State University, she serves the Philadelphia region of southeast Pennsylvania. There, on the community level, she promotes sound arboricultural practices and assists communities in the organization of their tree programs.
