Ever an avid outdoorsman I have always held a deep wonder and passion for the natural world and the mysteries of its science. For over ten years I directed or facilitated outdoor education programs in the mountains of Arizona and California. Beyond that I guided treatment based rafting, climbing and backpacking programs in locations like the Grand Canyon. Now I am excited to be teaching classes again and helping to get kids outside and exploring in nature.Reviews
