Hiker, traveler, researcher

I find myself most at home in unique geographic areas where the locality fires up my intrigue, whether I am passing through on foot or unraveling an ecological tale.

Education and experience

Field experience in the Neotropics, the Northeastern woodlands, the wetlands of the Rockies, and beyond.

Hiking and Climbing

Hiking and climbing has been a major motivator to me, driving me to explore Patagonia, North America’s great wildernesses, and Europe’s famous Alps.
