I am a conservation ecologist interested in developing applied solutions to conservation challenges rooted in scientific understandings of population ecology and movement ecology. Examining these processes through the lens of spatial interactions over time, I hope to better understand how individuals and populations respond to changing environments – from seasonal variation in resource distribution to large scale human-driven disturbances- and exploring how an understanding of these interactions across spatiotemporal scales might be used to craft creative and meaningful conservation strategy.

Favorite SFS Memory: The people! The friendships forged during my SFS experience are some of my strongest friendships, even 15 years after the experience. Although I certainly learned a lot about ecology and conservation during my semester, I learned even more about friendships and working in small groups. THAT is my biggest takeaway from the SFS experience…the friendships.
