As we welcome Fall, we're excited to spotlight one of our newest team members: Mirren Hill, the Administrative and Education Coordinator at Piedmont Wildlife Center!

Originally from Cary, NC, Mirren attended UNCW in Wilmington, NC, where she earned her Bachelor’s in Geosciences, and then NC State for her Master’s in Climate Change and Society. Mirren has always loved science, and her passion for environmental education led her to join PWC in January of 2024 as a Homeschool Counselor. Now, she supports our Administrative and Education teams in many ways, including but not limited to running our online and in-person Nature Store and assisting with payroll.

When asked what drew her to PWC, Mirren explained, “PWC’s mission really resonated with me. I believe people’s connection to nature is so important, not only for their well-being but also to inspire the next generation to protect the environment.”

Outside of work, you’ll find Mirren hiking, golfing, or working toward her goal of visiting every US National Park. Her favorite Ambassador Animal? Tony, the Great Horned Owl!

Mirren, we’re so glad to have you as part of the PWC family and can’t wait to see the positive impact you’ll continue to make!
