Speaking
I have spoken domestically and internationally and am available to present to your group or organization. I am happy to speak about birding, photography, and/or my 2014 bike-birding odyssey as featured in my memoir, Birding Under the Influence. I am a regular on the podcast circuit, so please contact me if you'd like to have me on your broadcast/channel/show.
​
This is an abbreviated (~20 min) talk which I presented at PopTech in Washington DC in October of 2023. There's no audience because the recording protocol crashed during my original talk and I had to give the talk again at the end of the afternoon session.
