Nancy is an avid birder living in MD with her husband, Paul, and their 3 children. She started birding in 1986 when her high school chemistry teacher offered a birding field trip. After taking a 10+ year hiatus to raise a family, a trip to the Inside Passage of Alaska in 2014 rekindled her addiction. She fell in love with Alaska and her feelings for the state are only rivaled by her love of Cape May, NJ. The birds and the people of Cape May captured her heart when she worked for The Nature Conservancy there doing work with shorebirds in 1993.
Nancy is passionate about working with environmental non-profits and teaching science to all age levels. In 2005, Nancy founded the St. Mary’s River Watershed Association in southern Maryland. She is currently a biologist at the North American Bird Banding Laboratory, serves on the Board of Directors for several organizations and teaches Environmental Science for The University of Maryland Baltimore County.
Mom's Big Year 
I told you at the Space Coast Birding Fest that I would give you some marketing ideas for the book I hope you write. Remember birding is one of the largest outdoor activities in the country, and the question is how do you reach the avid birders. There are numerous Audubon clubs through the country. I would write each club and offer them a discount maybe 20%-25% ( it has to be significant) on your book price if they will purchase them. Advertise your book in all of the birding magazines. Speaking at Bird Fest should give you an opportunity to sell your book at the Bird Fest.
You have a very interesting story to tell- so I would encourage you to write the book!!!
