Kristee Watson

Kristee Watson has lived in southern Nevada for over 30 years and brings a plethora of professional experience to Nevada Conservation League. Kristee has a background in finance, small business management, non-profit programming, and federal grant processes as the Grants Coordinator for Congresswoman Susie Lee. As Executive Director at Nevada Conservation League, and previously Deputy Director, Kristee recognizes that environmental policy protects underserved communities, improves overall health, and supports a thriving economy. Since Nevada is home to two of the fastest-warming cities in the country, it’s imperative that we educate, organize, and pass meaningful legislation to combat the climate crisis. Kristee loves hiking and the outdoors, so she appreciates the year-round recreational activities Clark County has to offer her and her family. Kristee has been interviewed in The Las Vegas Review-Journal, Inside Climate, and the Nevada Independent. She can discuss public lands, the clean energy economy as it relates to the investments of the Inflation Reduction Act, and the longstanding movement against Yucca Mountain and nuclear waste in Nevada.
