🐝 Meet Adam! 🥁
Adam grew up around agriculture in North Dakota, but his first love was music. As an accomplished drummer, he performed across the country playing nearly every genre imaginable while earning undergraduate degrees in Music and Fisheries & Wildlife Biology. He recently completed his Master’s in Biology as well.
Adam began working with bees as an apiary inspector in North Dakota in 2018. At the time, he jokes that he “had 800,000 colonies” because inspecting bees was his full time job, long before he started keeping his own colonies a little over a year ago.
He has always had a passion for conservation and the outdoors. When he’s not working with bees, you’ll probably find him hunting, hiking, fishing, camping, cooking, or still playing drums with his band.
One of Adam’s favorite parts of the beekeeping industry is connecting with beekeepers from across the country and hearing the different challenges and experiences each season brings.
If you see Adam at a conference or convention this year, make sure to stop by and say hello 👋🐝
