Her educational background includes a Ph.D. in Marine Geology and Geophysics, as well as degrees in Geology and Oceanography. Her career provided her with an in-depth knowledge of living and non-living natural resources and a holistic approach to the understanding of watersheds and ecosystems. As a resident of Berkeley County, she has served on the County Planning Commission and on the Opequon Creek Watershed Team. Bonnie is vice-president of Land Trust of the Eastern Panhandle and is a member of the Chamber of Commerce and the Potomac Valley Audubon Society.
