With an impressive background in fisheries management and aquatic habitat restoration, Dodson brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the organization. Dodson has been an engaged community member and professional in the field since 2001, making significant contributions to various organizations in Alaska like Cook Inlet Aquaculture Association, Cook Inlet Regional Citizen Advisory Council, and the Kodiak Regional Aquaculture Association. Expressing his enthusiasm for returning full time to the Central Kenai Peninsula, Dodson is eager to leverage his skills and expertise to advance KWF’s initiatives.

Candace has over twenty years of experience in the operations of non-profits, working internationally and in the U.S. She began her love affair with the Kenai Peninsula in 1999, when she and her sister decided to visit Alaska for their first annual sisters’ fishing trip. From the first few weeks here, Candace knew she would eventually call the Kenai Peninsula her home.

Now a few decades strong, the tradition remains that she and her sister find time to get out on the Kenai and the surrounding waters for their annual trip. And, she officially call the Peninsula her home.
