My writing reflects my passion for the outdoors, conservation, and wildlife, as well as my love of language, humor, absurdity, and history.

Born and raised in the suburbs of Washington DC, I now call the Sonoran Desert of southern Arizona my home where I volunteer with wildlife rescue and educational organizations. I have been fortunate to work with a wide array of fauna including bobcats, rattlesnakes, gila monsters, coatimundi, talking ravens, hawks, and owls. On any given night I can usually be found escorting animals off roadways, removing them from harm's way.
