My lifelong mission is to connect people with the natural world through filmmaking, writing, speaking, and teaching.

I love to explore and learn about the natural world–but more than anything else I love to teach people and I love to share what I discover so that we all become better observers and find ways to engage with the world more deeply and passionately.

Whenever I take a photo, make a video, write an article, or teach a new class this is what I’m thinking about. I’m thinking about ways that I can best help people understand themselves and the natural world so that we can all live richer and fuller lives.
