I am an avid nature nerd since I was little. I ran around catching frogs, toads, and snakes and then spent countless hours catching insects to feed the frogs and toads. I have a natural resources management degree from the University of Michigan.

Afterwards, I spent 12 years working for the National Wildlife Federation on biodiversity and Great Lakes conservation initiatives. I then spent 10 years leading the career services for graduate environmental and sustainability students at the University of Michigan. In 2016, I launched my own Green Career Advisor company where I help nature nerds and those passionate about sustainability find their dream green jobs.

In my spare time, I love to get outside and explore nature. I have volunteered for frog counts and volunteer as a citizen science observer recording reptile and amphibian observation for the Michigan Herp Atlas. I am excited to learn more from everyone on iNaturalist!
