ABOUT

AUTHOR. SCIENTIST. GUIDE.

An award-winning author of literary fiction, nonfiction, and poetry about water, climate, and rivers, I’ve been a Grand Canyon river guide, fluvial (stream) geologist, and science writer and editor.

Read my essays, poems, and stories in journals like Terrain.org, Audubon, and Writers on the Range.

I’m always happy to speak with your group or program. Reach out and we’ll talk.
