Get Closer to Nature
Welcome to Nature in Mind, where expertise meets passion in the pursuit of connecting people with nature. As a seasoned ecologist, wildlife expert, and interpretive naturalist with decades of experience, I'm dedicated to empowering individuals and organizations to deepen their relationship with the natural world.
My programs are built on a foundation of my background in birds, ecology, education, conservation, and mindfulness. I bring a unique blend of scientific expertise, teaching background, and guiding experience to every program I offer. From virtual presentations to in-person birding walks and immersive courses, I'm committed to creating engaging, accessible, and transformative experiences that inspire lifelong learning and connection.
What sets Nature in Mind apart is the focus on empowering others to become effective stewards of the natural world by providing background, teaching skills for observation, and integration of techniques that improve well-being and self-awareness. My trip leader training program has equipped dozens of individuals with the skills and confidence to lead others in mindful nature exploration. I'm proud to partner with conservation organizations, schools, community centers, and mental health service providers to amplify the impact of their work.
Through Nature in Mind, I aim to inspire a deeper sense of wonder, curiosity, and care for the natural world. I believe that by cultivating mindful connections with nature, we can transform lives, communities, and the world at large.
I invite you to explore my programs and hear from past participants who have experienced the transformative power of mindful nature connection. If you're ready to embark on a journey of discovery and growth, I look forward to accompanying you.
