I updated my linkedIn profile and thought I would post it here too. Happy new Year.

With my Masters Degree in Entomology (2014) I have explored so many areas of insects. I enjoy aquatic insects and staying connected to water, pollinators and the circle of water health involved with plant roots and vegetative communities, and predators and prey with the broad ecosystems we are caretakers of.
My heart continues to flow with the Mississippi River. I enjoy working on the movement of stormwater and increasing available ways to infiltrate soils. Dragons Wynd is doing well as a business where my independent passions make it fun to share insect science with a variety of insect enthusiasts and incorporate our vital brethren, Minnesota’s waters. I love to see how in Minnesota teamwork continues to be so very important and seeing organizations like The Freshwater Society, Mississippi Watershed Management Organization, the University of Minnesota, Hennepin County, Community members and leaders, and the Park services, work together. The Twin Cities are great and I believe that we truly set a fantastic example for others to see and repeat.
My wish is to continue to expand my knowledge of water issues and better understand those communities. I hope, like most of you, that COVID-19 quits infringing on plans for travel and connecting. I am ready to be invited anywhere in the world and share my passion and knowledge of insects and the environments we mange as humans sharing the world.
My skills in working with diversity makes it fun in a safe space we can communicate in. Hearing insect stories continues to inspire me to bring out passion in others even if not all passion is happy and fun.
When you have your next gathering, birthday party, neighborhood bbq, garden club meeting, garden tour, insect survey, I hope you think of inviting and hiring me.
