I am a broadly trained biologist and environmental scientist with 16 years of experience in experimental design, advanced statistical analysis, technical writing and education. My professional research projects are cross-disciplinary and integrate ecology, behavior, physiology, and environmental science. I am an internationally recognized ecologist with a prolific peer-reviewed publication record, and skilled communicator to diverse audiences though technical writing, teaching higher education courses, and invited seminars. I have over a decade of leadership experience coordinating complex research projects involving diverse teams.
