"I work with youth and adults facilitating a deep connection to the natural world, and what emerges from that is deep connections between people, and a deep connection to self."

"When we go about tracking animals, it's a multi-sensory and multi-disciplinary experience that connects us archetypically to this really old part of ourselves."
