I'm a wildlife conservationist dedicated to protecting wildlife from extinction and helping people more deeply connect to nature and ourselves. I lead the Sea Otter Fund at the Wildlife Conservation Network, which supports sea otter and ocean ecosystem recovery along the U.S. West Coast. Prior, I worked on international wildlife trafficking at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and as a senior scientist at Defenders of Wildlife. I care deeply about sea otters, songbirds, big cats, and other threatened animals and have a background in carnivore ecology, interdisciplinary conservation science and leadership.
In my personal capacity, and as a certified meditation teacher and ordained minister, I teach workshops to guide conservation professionals in strengthening emotional resilience for our heart-aching work on socio-ecological crises. My work and passions touches on three themes: Please reach out! I'm available to give talks, classes and workshops. I enjoy advising on grant program design, collaborating on wildlife conservation research and serving on graduate student committees. If you're just starting your career, thank you for bringing your energy to conservation and I'd love to meet you!
