Professional Interests:
I am interested in the conservation of large wilderness landscapes, especially those that contain threatened and restricted-range ecosystems. I work as an ecologist of the USDA Forest Service, within the Hazardous Fuels Reduction and Fire Ecology programs.
Personal Interests:
My hobbies include birding, hiking, fingerpickin', drawing, sculpting, reading, and enjoying time with family and friends.
