I grew up helping my father tend his bees. I developed this project after my own failure to find a location for a hive of my own in NYC, but I realized that perhaps the bigger picture here is more than a honey affair. Don't get me wrong, this is about my international honey collection, but it's also about the air quality in New York City. Have no doubt, pollination services are critical to maintaining, and improving, our local ecosystem whether or not we can see them. I hope you will learn and connect here. Please share this site with your friends and check out the blog for continuous update.

I have an art studio where a living room should be, which is where I spend much of my time, pencil in hand. Monday - Friday, I attempt to advance the environmental conservation movement by way of excel spreadsheet. I am drawn to sincerity in art, ideas, people and projects, NYBee among them.

My very first bee sting was at the community pool during swimming lessons when I was five. A yellow jacket (not to be mistaken for a honey bee) stung me on the bony part of my elbow and it felt like a sharp itch that came out of nowhere. I felt sorry for that little guy more than anything else. Now I work at Twitter in San Francisco, which often feels like a hive of ideas buzzing with activity. I coded nybee.com.
