Each year, I teach Fish Biology, Advanced Fisheries, Research Design, and Special Topics in Aquatic Ecology. I work to collaborate with management and conservation agencies to identify key questions and unknowns in our scientific understanding that is critical for management decisions. My research involves a range of projects.
I am a plant population and community ecologist. I obtained my Ph.D. in 1996, my first position (Assistant Professor, University of Washington) in 1998. I have published over 90 papers in peer-reviewed journals. Currently I am a Professor at the University of Montana.
