• Project manager of Body of Knowledge subscription service: managed workflow, subcontractor deadlines, reviewed submitted work, client relations, etc.• Statistically re-analyzed contested air quality data in the Alberta Oil Sands.• Coordinated mutli-day meetings with client and stakeholders.• Applied for Government of Canada funding on behalf of clients.

• Statistically analyzed taxonomy data (comparative statistics, time series analysis, canonical analysis).• Set up study design and statistically analyzed interdisciplinary data (hydrology, water quality, soil, vegetation).• Sampled water quality, sediment, zooplankton, benthic invertebrates, algae, and fish through minnow traps, nets, and electrofishing.• Wrote reports for clients and regulators.

• Statistically analyzed subsets of analytical data.• Designed statistical methods for monitoring programs to establish statistically defensible data sets.• Designed and presented a course on statistical analysis of groundwater monitoring data as outlined in the ESRD Groundwater Monitoring Directive.• Wrote R code to automate the statistical analysis component of the Groundwater Monitoring Directive.• Provided quality control for data that included testing the availability of nutrients, plant tissue analysis, and determining ecological risk from contamination.• Interpreted guidelines and provided quality control in large environmental data sets for environmental impact assessments, and monitoring.• Verified of groundwater and surface water quality and chemistry data robustness.

• Roles included working on the Water for Life project (Government of Alberta), compiling 4 years of biological and water chemistry data, graphing, and analyzing.• Continued to do field sampling and carrying out data analysis of nutrient, chlorophyll and periphyton community composition data using Excel and Systat (Anovas, linear regressions)• Managed a small group of volunteers and hired and supervised the work of research assistants.• Provided support to graduate students, maintaining biological stocks and samples, and shipping samples for analysis.

• Set up population ecology experiments using Daphnia, fed, counted, and manipulated experimental tanks.• Assisted with designing and carrying out microcosm experiments using Daphnia.• Maintained algae stocks and daphnia.• Worked as part of the field team responsible for collecting water, and invertebrate samples from the Bow and Red Deer Rivers.• Followed consistent standard procedures in collecting periphyton samples, as well as deploying and retrieving NDS (nutrient diffusing substrata) experiments, to determine eutrophication, and community composition of primary producers.• Performed water chemistry to measure quantities of nitrogen, phosphorus, and water column chlorophyll. Analyzed NDS samples for chlorophyll. Used a carbon analyzer on water column and periphyton samples.• Sorted and identified macro invertebrates for nitrogen analysis.
