Sustainability Leadership Fellow Cohort: 2023-2024

Ph.D. Student, Department of Forest and Rangeland Stewardship

Research Summary: I use data to understand how plants respond to changes in their environment, which generally follows two themes: Biological and Social. I am interested in how plants respond biologically to variations in climate in terms of their growth, reproduction, and mortality. Additionally, I am fascinated with the decision process behind the management of plants. I am concerned with the selection of tools, methods, and financial commitments we make regarding conservation and sustainability practices. I seek to share my outcomes and results with a variety of stakeholders through compelling spatial maps, web applications, and visualizations.
