Paul Feldmann

Paul Feldmann

Paul Feldmann was raised in one of the numerous, middle-American suburbs outside the great city of Chicago.  His family had an ample backyard, and in that garden he learned to climb trees, dig in the earth, press plants, and collect specimens of nature’s more astonishing phenomenon.  But his passion for nature has a twin, you see.  He is not solely interested in the way nature works, but in the way absolutely everything works.  Having worked in construction from the ground up, he has seen and built it all. And so, while Paul is a Master Carpenter, he has also earned his Master’s Degree in Biology. Dynamism, rigor, attention, and passion are perhaps the most clearly defining characteristics of his broad education, his restless travel, his scholarly research, his extensive experience in the field, as well as his hands-on disposition.  Indeed, any new challenge makes Paul feel, once again, like the young man knee-deep in murky suburban ponds.
