I was born and raised on a farm in the hills of Kelowna B.C surrounded by an abundance of wildlife ranging from snakes to hawks and bears, all of which have a special place in my heart. I raise emus on my family farm and I have been working on acquiring my falconry license for a more natural form of pest control for the surrounding orchards and vineyards. My grandfather was an adventurer and advocate for nature as am I. I spend a lot of time seeking out rare and at risk species throughout the okanagan to document and help better understand the distribution of all the unique critters out there
