I am an ecologist broadly interested in doing basic and applied research to inform, evaluate, and implement effective biological conservation and environmental sustainability.

I have studied avian population and community responses to conservation efforts in protected, restored, and working lands; trophic interactions; and the effects of biodiversity-driven ecosystem services on agricultural productivity. 

I have also been active in science and conservation boards, working groups, and joint ventures, and am dedicated to equity, inclusion, and diversity along multiple axes in science and conservation.
