Collaborative ecologist who combines rigorous science with solution-based thinking to address pressing conservation issues. Seven years of professional experience in developing analyses for a wide range of landscapes (from deserts to mountain tops), native plant restoration, species management (e.g. greater sage-grouse, Bonneville cutthroat, Utah prairie dog), and natural resource objectives (e.g. water resources, ecological integrity, carbon sequestration, and wildfire management). Applies background in community ecology and evolution to current conservation practices to plan for a more resilient natural world.

Dissertation: The ecological and evolutionary effects of fire
on the genus Pinus and boreal systems. Advisor: Dr. Elizabeth A. Leger. Designed and implemented research exploring the role of fire in shaping natural communities, ecosystem processes, and plant evolution. Applied a wide range of statistical modeling to understand the complex nature of ecology (e.g. Multi-variate regression, Bayesian model selection, and structural equation modeling). Collaborated with scientists in other disciplines, such as chemical ecology and phylogenetics, to ensure the right tools were applied to best answer my research questions.
Graduated with a degree in Biology with emphasis in Field Biology and a minor in Spanish. Per my coursework, participated in a wide range of biological surveys and assessments, including stream sampling and bat surveys
