Biography

In 2018 I graduated from the Master's University in Santa Clarita, CA with a B.S. in Biology with an emphasis in environmental biology/natural history. My hometown is Coeur d'Alene, ID where I both worked and volunteered in various capacities for the Idaho Department of Fish and Game over the 9 years prior to starting at UWSP. My research interests are in the applied management and conservation of sport fishes that are of high ecologic, economic, and social value. I am studying under Dr. Dan Isermann and my project is to assess abundance of centrarchids and juvenile yellow perch in northern Wisconsin lakes with different walleye recruitment histories.
