Forbes Contributor

I focus on interesting, innovative and revolutionary U.S. stories about green startups and nongovernmental organizations as a Forbes contributor. I’m an environmental communications consultant. That means I spent 20 years in print newspapers until the bottom fell out around 2010. I’ve been in the virtual world since then as a blogger, writer, editor and social media manager. I author a weekly public radio show on the environment in Bay City, Michigan, where I go by the moniker Mr. Great Lakes. I received a bachelor’s in journalism from Michigan State University, a master’s in environmental studies from University of Illinois at Springfield and have completed numerous fellowships and been a featured speaker on environmental reporting and social media at a number of conferences. I love camping. I’m a voracious reader who prefers horror and thrillers as an escape.
