Greetings fellow Toads. In these uncertain times, I hope everyone is doing as well as possible and staying healthy. We are doing fine and while my wife works in healthcare, we’ve avoided any direct impacts so far. I’m still living in Sacramento after 17 years. I continue to work for The Nature Conservancy, now leading our work on wildlife-friendly agriculture and water use, with the goal of saving salmon and migratory birds. I’ve recently rekindled my love for mountain biking and have been bikepacking and racing this last couple of years. Super fun, but probably not the smartest decision for someone now moving towards the mid-50s! Please reach out if you’re ever swinging through my neighborhood.
