Looking for outdoor/environmental education job opportunities in the north Texas (greater Dallas/Fort Worth area). Open to Public, private, city, schools, nature and wildlife centers, state parks? Looking to transition out of teaching and need to start somewhere or get my foot in the door somehow. I have a Bachelors Degree in natural Resources Recreation & Tourism but very little work experience in the past 10 years outside education. Recently turned 40 but not opposed to volunteer opportunities or internships that may help me get an in.

I wanted to reach out because we’re hosting a large-scale AI Buildathon in Dallas (June 18-19, 2026), and I think this aligns perfectly with your community.

Here’s a quick snapshot:
• 1500+ elite builders + 10+ sponsored tracks
• 24-hour build + match format (build real products & connect with companies)
• $10K+ in prizes
• Opportunity to connect with sponsors, VCs, and recruiters
• Focus on building production-ready AI apps (RAG → agents → full pipelines)
• Tracks across frontend, UX, RAG/retrieval, agent orchestration, data pipelines, testing, and more

This is designed to be a career-defining experience, especially for builders looking to break into serious AI work.
