Besides my love of earth science, I am an educational scriptwriter, VR photographer, videographer-editor and instructional designer. I specialize in geoscience education, local history, climate, energy, and water resources topics. I have been leading interpretive geology walks since becoming a Volunteer Naturalist in 2016. I recently retired from the Poudre School District to spend more time appreciating our amazing Northern Colorado landscapes.
