As you might have guessed by now, I have been drawing from nature my whole life. But through the intentional practice of note-taking, observing, and questioning, I have learned more about the natural sciences than ever before. I feel more connected to the land, the plants, and the critters that scamper around us. In 2025, I received my Certificate from the Wild Wonder Foundation's Nature Journaling Educator Program. It is part of my life's work to facilitate spaces where people can creatively engage with nature. Whether they are deep in the city or in the most rural mountains, there is nature to notice and learn from. I hope you can join us in one of our adventures.
