After years of gardening, hiking, and paddling in Central Texas, I'm working to get to know more of the plants and wildlife I encounter outdoors. I'm a member of the 2018-2019 training class with the Balcones Canyonlands Texas Master Naturalist program, a Travis Audubon member, graduate of the Native Plant Society of Texas Level 1 Native Landscape Certification program, and a "Green Team" volunteer with my neighborhood elementary school.
