I have worked in Alaska for 23 years specializing in natural resource management, partnership development and community engagement. My work focuses on building equitable partnerships between agency managers, tribes, researchers, industry and communities to address large scale issues like climate change. I am the Network Program Officer for the Alaska Conservation Foundation and is also the Coordinator for the Aleutian Bering Sea Initiative. I have B.S. degrees in Fisheries and Wildlife Management and Geography, specializing in GIS and Remote Sensing from Utah State University and a Masters in Natural Resource Management from the University of Arizona.
