I'm no expert, but I am curious and always excited to learn new things! I'm the Director of Land Conservation for the Maryland/D.C. Chapter of The Nature Conservancy, so I see a lot of US Mid-Atlantic natural areas close-up. I also care for a Virginia native plant garden in my neighborhood. And I love using iNat when I travel! All comments and corrections are appreciated! I'm always ready to learn from my mistakes.

I am passionate about nurturing the skills and confidence of the iNat community, especially identifiers. I organize a monthly series on Zoom to share knowledge, build skills and welcome new iNat users to the community:
https://citynaturechallengedc.org/virtual-inat-nights/ We focus on species on the greater Washington DC Metro area along with iNat power user skills that will help you anywhere in the world. You are welcome to join us, whatever your geography!
