Naturalist, amateur nature and wildlife photographer, and Conservation Biology undergrad. Studied at East Tennessee State University in Johnson City, Tennessee. Lover of all things natural, with a particular passion for birds, herps, lepidoptera and native flora, especially wild orchids and carnivorous plants. Originally from New England, much of my naturalizing has been in the Southern Appalachians, Pacific Northwest, and most recently, the Gulf Coast of Florida, as well as several cross-country trips and other trips throughout North America and beyond. I am currently a Nature and Outdoor Recreation Leader for the Pasco County, Florida Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Department. Centered out of Jay B. Starkey Wilderness Park in New Port Richey, Florida, where I am working to document the outstanding biodiversity within the park's 20,000 acres.
