My research focuses on applied solutions to wildlife and landscape conservation challenges. I am particularly driven to address human impacts on biodiversity at the intersection of species distributions and global change, but I also appreciate that the best maps at any scale are often informed by local surveys. As a Postdoctoral Scholar in the UC Davis Museum of Wildlife & Fish Biology I am conducting a large-scale biodiversity monitoring project of California Department of Water Resources restoration sites across the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. I have also been analyzing long-term breeding bird density trends to model the spatial and ecological predictors of avian productivity at local and landscape scales in the Putah Creek watershed of California’s Central Valley.
