Executive Director – Cory MacNulty

Cory MacNulty joined the Voyageurs National Park Association as Executive Director in October 2004. She has a strong background in conservation, outreach, and nonprofit administration. Previously Cory was the Coordinator of LoonWatch, a program that works to conserve common loons and their habitats, and an affiliate instructor in biology at the Sigurd Olson Environmental Institute of Northland College in Ashland, WI. Cory holds a BS in Geography and Environmental Studies from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a Masters in Conservation Biology from the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities.

Cory first visited Voyageurs National Park in 1995, while studying common loons in collaboration with the Park. She has been regularly returning to the Park ever since to do fieldwork and research, explore the islands and bays, and experience the magic of the place.

Cory oversees all aspects of the VNPA’s day-to-day operations, including communication, development, advocacy, and policy. She is committed to preserving the natural splendor and cultural history of Voyageurs National Park for the enjoyment of generations to come.
