TJ Simpson is a third-year Parks and Recreation Management major at California State University, Chico (CSU Chico). A first-generation college student from Southern California, his love for the outdoors stems from his great-grandmother, whose deep appreciation for nature shaped his own. Now based in Long Beach, T.J. is working toward his dream of becoming a park ranger—a goal made more attainable through his participation in #CaliforniansForAll College Corps.
