Introduction	I’m a birder and photographer from Carmel, Indiana. I started birding when I was seventeen and have continued to enjoy it ever since. Photography is a relatively new interest of mine - one that I hope to continue to pursue and learn more about. Among my favorite birding locations are Southwest Florida, Southeast Arizona, and Crane Creek, Ohio. I have also birded extensively throughout Indiana and in most Midwestern states. In 2008, I graduated from Indiana University’s Kelley School of Business with a degree in Marketing, and I currently live with my wife in Carmel. I am extremely interesting in getting more people interested in birds and birding. I love sharing the knowledge that I have gain with new birders and I believe that teaching people about birds helps them better understand why we must work to conserve their habitats.
