I am a dedicated landscape ecologist with extensive experience in remote sensing, disturbance, and biodiversity research. I hold a Master's Degree from Montana State University, where my thesis focused on fire severity assessments using GEDI LiDAR in the Amazon Rainforest. Having recently completed an ORISE fellowship with Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the USFS Southern Research Station, I am now embarking on my next chapter as a PhD student at the University of Maine. My research will delve deeper into quantitative ecology, linking remote sensing, ecological theory, and biodiversity. I am also actively involved with the Ecological Society of America, serving as the Chair of the Early Career Ecologist section.
