While plant and wildlife interactions are my favorite subjects, I’m delighted to take on nearly any writing project where I can start with difficult research material and make it accessible to more readers. I prefer to write without AI tools since I am comfortable finding reliable research on my own and do not wish to contribute to the environmental burden that AI creates.
