I love connecting people with nature and the live streaming cameras are a fantastic way to do that. By offering up-close looks at wild birds through the cams, people all over the world can learn about these animals and in turn, start to care about protecting them. I support the team by assisting with social engagement, helping with events, and creating content from our live cam streams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I worked for many years as a naturalist and environmental educator in Charleston, South Carolina, before making my move north in 2023. My interests include science communication, historical data, and nest monitoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;Education<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>B.A., History &amp; Environmental Science, College of Charleston<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Spark Moment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>My favorite bird is the Prothonotary Warbler! Getting to experience these incredible birds up close as a naturalist, guide, and nest monitor has always been one of the highlights of my career. I spent many years learning about these beautiful cavity-nesting warblers whilst wading through my beloved cypress-tupelo swamps. Aside from birds, my favorite animal is the American alligator!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":20333,"parent":0,"template":"","program":[155],"project":[49],"class_list":["post-20332","staff","type-staff","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","program-advancement","project-bird-cams"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.birds.cornell.edu\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/staff\/20332","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.birds.cornell.edu\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/staff"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.birds.cornell.edu\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/staff"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.birds.cornell.edu\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20333"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.birds.cornell.edu\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20332"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"program","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.birds.cornell.edu\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/program?post=20332"},{"taxonomy":"project","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.birds.cornell.edu\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project?post=20332"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
