Began Conservation Science NRT Program Fall 2019

I became interested in the NRT Program as an opportunity to practice transdisciplinary science and the chance to acquire skills that will lead to effective and novel conservation.

I received a BS in Environmental Science and Policy with a minor in Biology from the Southern Oregon University. I am interested in habitat conservation, the preservation of endangered species, and biodiversity. My current research investigates how decisions are made by land managers and others and how these decisions affect habitat conservation. I am interested in mesocarnivores and woodland songbirds in forested environments.
