Biography

My primary research interest is to understand how animal behavior and species distributions are changing in response to human influence and habitat transformation. I seek to provide scientific insights that inform wildlife management and conservation practices. I am particularly interested in the methodologies and scales—both temporal and spatial—that guide management decisions, ensuring that biodiversity and ecosystem services are optimized.
