Tovar Cerulli
Engagement Strategist / Social Scientist
As a student of culture and values, Tovar has a talent for listening, distilling core meanings, and illuminating diverse perspectives. As a writer, he loves to craft concise, powerful prose.
His lifelong curiosity about human relationships with the larger-than-human natural world led him to apprentice with a forester-logger and learn to hunt after a decade as a vegan. It also inspired him to attend graduate school, where he coined the now-commonplace moniker “adult-onset hunter” and researched Ojibwe and Euro-American hunting communities’ ways of talking about wolves.
Tovar has collaborated with a wide array of state, federal, and nonprofit organizations on communication, messaging, and engagement efforts. He is the author of The Mindful Carnivore: A Vegetarian’s Hunt for Sustenance and has written for many publications, including Outdoor America, High Country News, and Northern Woodlands.
He holds a PhD in communication from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.
