Lab Mission: Our mission is to advance wildlife conservation through rigorous ecological research, quantitative analysis, and practical decision-support tools. We integrate field ecology, spatial modeling, and structured decision-making approaches to address conservation and management challenges across multiple spatial and temporal scales. Our work emphasizes collaboration with conservation practitioners and agencies to ensure that scientific findings inform transparent, evidence-based management decisions. Through research, teaching, and mentorship, we aim to train the next generation of wildlife professionals while contributing solutions that support the long-term conservation of species and their habitats.
