Forest Ecologist

My favorite science experiences have been those that involve the opportunity to discover new things about forests. I enjoy working with the people who depend on the forests I’ve studied. I’ve also enjoyed all the travel opportunities that a career in science has provided. I have done fieldwork in beautiful places like Micronesia and the cypress swamps of the Southern United States. I have presented my research results at conferences in places like Alaska, Italy, and New Zealand.
