Shorter, more realistic version:

Jenn is a sheep farmer from Maine, and is the perfect example of the phrase "curiosity killed the cat." All she wanted to do was raise sheep on her family farm, but instead, after doing undergraduate work in environmental archaeology, she found herself battling for her life— and everyone else's— trying to help the budding carbon removal market solve the problem of climate change. An unintentional expert in this nascent field, Jenn combines her visual storytelling skills with her decade-long background in education to ensure that folks understand not only what carbon removal is, but also why it is key to our planet thriving.
