Brief Biography

Jay Udelhoven is a Senior Policy Advisor with The Nature Conservancy's Global Marine Team. Jay works within and outside the United States to assess and develop opportunities for private organizations to acquire or direct rights and interests in ocean and coastal waters through Marine Conservation Agreements (MCAs). MCAs include any formal or informal understanding between two or more parties in which the parties obligate themselves, for an exchange of benefits, to take certain actions, refrain from certain actions, or transfer certain rights and responsibilities to achieve agreed upon ocean or coastal conservation goals.

Jay came to the Conservancy in 2005 with experience in natural resource management, planning, protection, and research at the state, federal, and international levels throughout the United States and parts of Africa. Jay has a Master of Environmental Policy from the University of Denver, Colorado and a Bachelor Science in Natural Resources from the University of Wisconsin - Madison.
