I enjoy crafting stories about farming, soils and conservation from raw data. My education in Environmental Statistics and my practical experience in Applied Research helped me hone my data analytical skills and gain deep understanding of various agronomic and environmental topics.Currently, I am an Environmental Leader with International Paper. I help with managing environmental compliance programs including Potable and Wastewater monitoring, testing, reporting, and data modelling. I am also excited to lead projects such as the beneficial reuse of pulp by-products for agricultural purposes and soil rejuvenation. Previously, I managed 1800 research plots and dozen field scale multidisciplinary trials around the Peace Country, Alberta that focuses on Climate Smart Agriculture. I worked with farmers to implement regenerative practices on their operations to improve soil carbon capture, soil health, and farm profitability. I take pride in working with innovate individuals and researchers who provide local and relevant information to our farmers.
