Bio:

My background is in conservation management. I spent five years working to improve detection and control of invasive species in the Hawaiian islands. I became interested in remote sensing as a way to improve detection efforts. I got my undergraduate degree at Western Washington University in Environmental Economics. I spent six months studying French in Angers, France.

Research Area:

I am interested in bridging the gap between science and "on-the-ground" resource management. Currently, I am working on a project for The Nature Conservancy where I am applying remote sensing techniques to improve our knowledge of the location, distribution and variability of wetlands in the Columbia high plateau. The purpose of this project is to help TNC managers develop a strategy to conserve biodiveristy in this area. I am a concurrent student with the Dan J. Evans school of Public Affairs.
