Kamrowski joins The Habitat Organization as a former emergency government specialist, assisting local communities and grant recipients with recovery, resilience and mitigation planning and recovery efforts from extreme weather events. Previously (2017-2019), he served as a community development planner for the Northwest Regional Planning Commission in Spooner, Wisconsin, developing comprehensive hazard mitigation, community health, recreation, transportation, and natural resources plans for the district. Kamrowski was a 2016 graduate of the University of Wisconsin – Stevens Point with a Bachelor of Science degree in Natural Resource Social and Policy Science.

“It’s an honor to join Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever, two respected organizations doing incredible things for wildlife and public lands in Wisconsin,” stated Cody Kamrowski. “I look forward to tackling the challenges and demands of this position alongside our dedicated volunteers and staff.”

Kamrowski’s professional growth has been supported by his fondness for volunteerism, particularly in the outdoor sector. Beginning in 2014, he was selected as an associate director for the Wisconsin Wildlife Federation, a statewide conservation organization which represents over two hundred conservation clubs throughout the state. In 2018, Kamrowski was elected as the youngest board member ever to the National Wildlife Federation, a conservation organization which has been uniting Americans from all walks of life to give a voice to wildlife since 1936. Since 2017, he has also served as a Wisconsin DNR-certified hunter education instructor, teaching several classes throughout the year to a diverse audience with a mission of creating future hunters that are safe and conservation-minded.
