About

I am a Research Assistant Professor in the Department of Wildlife Ecology and Conservation at the University of Florida. My research focuses on understanding how wildlife populations respond to environmental change and how ecological processes scale from individuals to populations and communities. I use quantitative and interdisciplinary approaches to integrate information from long-term monitoring programs, participatory science, and field-based studies to address challenges in ecology, conservation, and natural resource management.  
 

My work is broadly centered on population ecology and conservation decision-making. I am particularly interested in how demographic processes, dispersal, migration, and environmental variability interact to shape population persistence and resilience. By developing statistical frameworks that combine diverse data sources across spatial and temporal scales, I seek to generate science that both advances ecological understanding and supports evidence-based management of wildlife populations in a changing world.
