Biography

I cover all aspects of the environment for WGCU Public Media, NPR & PBS for Southwest Florida. I write happy brights to deep-dive enterprise stories and produce same as broadcast versions for NPR-member websites and our sister NPR radio stations throughout Florida after first publishing on WGCU.org and broadcasting on WGCU FM 90.1 FM. Also am on camera for PBS projects occasionally. Climate change, development issues in Southwest Florida, the Everglades restoration, invasive species, and water quality and quantity are among top priorities.
