Biographical Sketch:
I have a broad background in ecology and conservation biology and have focused on ecological connectivity in my studies and work. I have contributed papers on modeling and measuring connectivity, implementing connectivity, and designing climate-wise connectivity. As member of the Connectivity Conservation Specialist Group, I helped write the IUCN ‘Guidelines for Conserving Connectivity through Ecological Networks and Corridors’. As a co-author, I helped update the book ‘Corridor Ecology – Linking landscapes for biodiversity conservation and climate adaptation’ with the most current science, including a new chapter she wrote on climate-wise connectivity. In my work, I have also applied adaptive management to ecological programs and projects and synthesized and communicated best available science by organizing workshops and symposia, and communicating technical information to agency, stakeholder, and academic representatives, and the general public.
