Hello, I am based in Greater Austin and love being a growth strategist for nonprofits that support nature! I chose to work at iNaturalist because I strongly believe in both the power of nature and community. Both are critical to living a healthy and full life. I love how the platform is accessible and gives folks the opportunity to connect, learn and ultimately protect biodiversity.

In addition to my professional roles, I enjoy hiking with my dogs, meditation and finding any good excuse to explore a new trail.

While I love taking any kind of nature photos, my favorites are the wildflowers.
