Jim Schmidt, Director of Fiber development for Elimini, based in Houston. I am a Forester by training (BSFR, UGA), and have spent the last 30 years working in the Pulp & Paper / Lumber industries. I’m most excited to be involved in developing the second wave of sustainable US Forestry. There are certainly challenges ahead, but the power and productivity of US Forests, and US Foresters, will help pave the way to the future.
