Who Are We? Meet your Santa Rosa Team!
WHO ARE WE??
Foster - Part Time Store Dog - a/k/a CEO (Canine Executive Officer)
Certified Dog Biscuit Eating Specialist Since 2022
Foster is a 4-year-old yellow lab and a very good boy. He enjoys spending his days going on long walks and saying hello to the birds and people of Santa Rosa. One of Foster’s many skills is helping our customers in their shopping experience by keeping them company as they walk around the store.
Lauren DeRosa, Co-Owner, CEO, President 
Certified Bird Feeding Specialist Since 2006
Definitely an older, much thinner me, but I'm still as passionate about bird feeding and the hobby as I was when we bought the Fort Collins, CO store over 17 years ago. We are in Santa Rosa from time to time and look forward to meeting you!
Lynn Raymond, Co-Owner, CEO, President
Certified Bird Feeding Specialist Since 2006
Kai Connick, General Manager
Certified Bird Feeding Specialist Since 2022
Kai is a lifelong California native who lived in southern California before moving to the Santa Rosa area in 2017. He has been the store manager for Wild Birds Unlimited in Santa Rosa since it was acquired by Lauren DeRosa and Lynn Raymond in September of 2022. He’s a dedicated animal lover who was previously employed in the pet industry – but working at Wild Birds Unlimited is the best job he’s ever had! His favorite bird is the chickadee. When he’s not in the store, he fills his free time with reading, video games, singing and playing music, his motorcycle, obsessing about his bird feeding setup (of course), and providing a lap for the three cats who graciously allow him to live in their home.
Adam Mumm, Assistant Manager
Certified Bird Feeding Specialist Since 2022
Adam is a California native, and has been a Santa Rosa local for over 20 years. He’s been feeding birds ever since he was a child, learning the hobby from his grandmother, and his favorite backyard bird is the Cedar Waxwing! Most of his career he has been involved in animal education, and he likes to put up a new Bird Fact every day he is in the store. In addition to his love of our local birds, Adam is also a passionate fan of reptiles, fish, and all sorts of other exotic creepy crawlies!
Roseanna Woods, Wonderfully-Inherited Team Member
Certified Bird Feeding Specialist Since 2022
Roseanna has worked part time for Wild Birds Unlimited Santa Rosa for over 16 years, all the while enhancing her knowledge of our feathered friends, and enjoying the birds that come to her backyard. Her other passions are hiking, gardening, playing the piano, and riding her bike. Max, an older tuxedo cat, is her main companion at home.
Joe Nielsen, Team Member
Certified Bird Feeding Specialist Since 2023
Joe is a native Santa Rosan, having lived in the region for most of his life. He joined the WBU team in September 2022, and has enjoyed expanding his bird knowledge ever since. When not filling his need for birding, Joe also loves writing song lyrics, gaming, and going out to eat for great sushi!
Abigail White, Team Member

Abigail has been with the Wild Birds Unlimited team since November 2022. She is an aspiring ceramic artist who grew up bird-watching with her Oma. She’s the owner of Foster, our part-time store dog. Her favorite bird is the common raven.
