After completing a degree in Biodiversity and Conservation, Alyssa took part in the Green Army Program and then joined the GWLAP Field Crew where she assisted with revegetation work and weed control. In 2018 she began work with the Flows for the Future Program which aims at restoring natural flow patterns throughout the Eastern Mount Lofty catchments.
