Avid backpacker, bikepacker, conservation advocate, and nature enthusiast. I enjoy exploring remnant ecosystems and plant communities. I'm car-free so most of my observations are via bicycling, paddling, and hiking.

You should spend 20 minutes a day out in nature...unless you're too busy. In that case, you should spend an hour.

I also enjoy leading nature walks around southern Wisconsin through various organizations. Look for me on:
