Completing my PhD to explore some of the upstream issues with science policy and practice that limit the prediction and assessment of environmental impacts. My goal is to provide meaningful information to help predict or assess environmental impacts. I am looking for post-graduation opportunities to continue exploring human impacts on the environment. I am experienced in project management, organizing and running conference activities, and leading critical committees such as Quality Management. Consistently demonstrated attention to detail when providing data management, interpretation, and reporting. I am familiar with many human activities that impact the environment, particularly municipal wastewater, pulp and paper, metal mines, hydroelectric dams, and nuclear facilities. Environmental Effects Monitoring, Risk Assessment, Closure Plan, and Impact Assessment are regulated processes I have successfully navigated. I look forward to new challenges to assess environmental impacts.
