I had wonderful experiences at the 2019, 2020 and 2021 Wild Wonder conferences where I learned a lot, exchanged ideas, and met other people who care about our natural world and are committed to learning and sharing knowledge about Nature. Each year there are new techniques to learn and ways to chronicle my observations. Over the years I've studied with Robert Regis Dvorak, a California Academy of Sciences biological illustrator,  have always doodled and drawn pictures to capture notes and ideas. In January 2019 I began studying nature journaling in earnest with Clayton Anderson, Kristin Meuser, John Muir Laws, and Christine Elder. Encouraged by Jack's exhortation to spread nature journaling, in July 2020 I started Nature Journaling Together classes with a group of tweens, teens and adults that meets weekly to sketch journal on different topics.   Before studying psychology, I studied marine biology and ecology and continued my passion for being a good environmental steward. Nature journaling keeps me connected to my earthly foundation and reinforces my approach to looking at life and work from an ecosystems view. Professionally, I am an executive coach to managers and executives who are working to make the world a better place,  use graphic facilitation when running meetings, workshops, or conferences, and am a Certified Brainspotting Trauma Therapist helping people recover from stress and burnout. I am grateful to all the teachers and volunteers who make Wild Wonder a reality!
