Director, BeeCAUSE Alliance
At the moment I am a director for the BeeCAUSE Alliance, which seems to consume a lot of time. We are working hard on national issues if invasive pest and ways to fix miticide approvals.
I currently run ~5000 hives with a strong focus on pollination I also write monthly for American Bee Journal and occasionally for Bee Culture on industry topics.
I am a retired Engineer with a background in all things agricultural. From milking cows to building combines to now pollination of produce, in one way or another agriculture has been key.
In the time left over I also run a plastics manufacturing project in the off season, where we make several things for the bee industry.
