I'm a wildlife conservationist dedicated to protecting wildlife from extinction and helping people more deeply connect to nature and ourselves. I work at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, where I run grant programs and advise policy to end international wildlife trafficking. I care deeply about birds and big cats, and have a background in ecology, interdisciplinary conservation science and leadership.
In my personal capacity, and as a certified meditation teacher, I teach workshops to guide conservation professionals in developing our mental 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 on wildlife conservation topics and classes on resilience to eco-grief. 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!
