A photo of mine was in the San Francisco Chronicle! And it’s an article about San Francisco Garter Snakes! How cool is this?!

My photo (with my permission) was just used in a super interesting article about the first henipavirus found in North America. Neat!

The year of the snake is off to a rocky start, so here is a species who is a rock specialist. Let’s thrive in the rocks like these little snakes.

It's been a damn dark week for so many of my friends and our community for so many reasons. Please don't stop reaching towards a brighter day. Have faith that it will come. Be kind to each other, and keep looking up.

At our company’s annual celebration last night I was voted Number One Nature Nerd by my colleagues. Since I work with some of the best biologists in the business, I’m incredibly honored and I vow to try and live up to my title.

Did you know I also do pottery? I don’t sell them yet, but I would like to find interesting ways to combine my photography and/or local native species into my ceramics (and maybe sell those).

Note: the drawings in the last photo are underglaze transfers by Elan Transfers and are not my design.

Just like the Welwitchia, we will endure.
