I am a conservation scientist focused on understanding the value of wildlife and advancing innovative solutions to conservation challenges. My dissertation combines interviews, surveys, spatial analysis, and economic tools to investigate how wide-ranging and migratory wildlife in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem can be effectively managed as public resources. Before joining UC Berkeley, I worked at EcoHealth Alliance, where I studied the alignment of zoonotic disease prevention with conservation goals to advance holistic ecosystem stewardship. I hold a Master’s degree from the Yale School of the Environment and a BA from the University of Texas at Austin.
