About Us
I am a nature nerd. I love immersing myself in nature looking, listening, photographing, and marvelling. I spend hours identifying every species I come across and want everyone to know and appreciate the tiny differences that make each one unique. I love writing about nature, and I get immense pleasure from helping someone get started birding or becoming a steward of their own piece of nature.
I've loved nature ever since I can remember, growing up in my mother's garden in Austin. I remember always asking her what the different kinds of plants were, and I even had my own bougainvillea plant in front of my window because I liked the flowers so much. I started my bird life list in 2007, when I was six years old. When I was bored growing up, I would basically study the Sibley bird guide and look at all the pictures and read about them. I started my lepidopterid and odonate life lists in 2017. I became the butterfly consultant for the EmilyAnn Theatre and Gardens in 2019. I am also an award-winning nature photographer, as well as being a videographer.
