Department of Fisheries and Wildlife

I integrate animal behavior, physiology, and landscape ecology to better understand how fish and wildlife interact with their environment. My research employs observational study, field experiments, and simulation modeling.

I work at the nexus of animal behavior, physiology, and landscape ecology to gain novel insights into how animals interact with their environment and how human activities alter this fundamental relationship. I am broadly interested in how the physical features of watersheds influence consumer energy budgets, population dynamics, and ecosystem services. My research integrates observational study, field experiments, and simulation modeling.
