Biography

I received my B.S. at Virginia Tech in 2014 where I was introduced to the world of birding. I have completed field jobs on the coast of Alaska, central Mongolia, Montana, and New Jersey working with eiders, Saker Falcons, passerines, and other raptors. I am working on my M.S. at CSU under the direction of Bill Kendall focusing on the breeding ecology and population demographics of Cinnamon Teal in the San Luis Valley.
