I am a conservation biologist with two decades of experience in conservation practice in the US, US Caribbean, Central Africa and Southeast Asia. My experience ranges from primary research to practice and policy making. I have also influenced policy formulation at the national and international level with respect to the trade and regulation of particular wildlife and plant products, both endangered and invasive. I maintain particular interests in site-based land and species conservation as well as the wildlife trade and invasive species.
