BHA is dedicated to serving as the voice for our wild public lands, waters and wildlife.

Tawney works every day with a talented staff and 700-plus volunteer leaders to make sure all North Americans have access to public lands and wares and the fish and wildlife habitat when they get there. Tawney was raised in Montana, where he hunted and fished from an early age. He earned a bachelor's degree in wildlife biology from the University of Montana in 2000. His conservation career now spans two decades. Prior to working at Backcountry Hunters & Anglers, Tawney worked for other conservation organizations including the National Wildlife Federation and the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership.
