CURRENT RESEARCH
I am a Ph.D. candidate in the West Virginia Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit. For my dissertation research, I am investigating long-term responses in bird communities and abundance to forest management and climate change in the Appalachian Mountains. Read more...
RESEARCH INTERESTS
In general, I aim to study how wildlife species respond to human impacts, management actions, and environmental change, with a focus on avian ecology. I am interested in applied research and generating scientific knowledge in order to better inform and guide conservation and management efforts. My past research experiences encompass community, spatial, and landscape ecology.
CAREER GOAL
My career goal is to become a Certified Wildlife Biologist and conduct ecological research as a federal scientist with a U.S. Forest Service or U.S. Geological Survey research station. I am also open to positions with other federal natural resources agencies, such as the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and National Park Service.
GENERAL INTERESTS
Aside from ecological research, I enjoy wildlife photography, nature walks, science communication, creative writing, and art. I am an avid birder, with a matching enthusiasm for seeing mammals, amphibians, and reptiles.
