About
- Bio:
I was website managing editor at NRDC for six years, through the end of 2006. My new adventure is unfolding in Asheville, North Carolina, where I've set up shop as a web consultant to nonprofits and plan to traipse about the Blue Ridge outdoors with my wife and kids.
- Roots in:
- Manhattan, Brooklyn, Central Vermont
- Favorite place:
- The Long Trail, the Canada-to-Massachusetts footpath along the spine of Vermont's Green Mountains.
- Why "environmentalism" matters:
- When, some autumn day in about twenty years, I hike up Camel's Hump with my daughter, I want her to find the same delights — sugar maples ablaze with color, sweet-smelling meadows, and delicate tufts of alpine tundra at the summit — that I've so enjoyed in a dozen trips up that iconic New England mountain. She deserves her natural inheritance, all of it.
