I'm an assistant professor at St. John Fisher University with interests in wildlife conservation, ecology, and habitat restoration. Much of my research has focused on the conservation of reptiles and amphibians and especially on the spatial dynamics of declining or threatened species including massasaugas, timber rattlesnakes, and crawfish frogs. Although my area of specialty is with amphibians and reptiles, I am interested in biodiversity broadly and have experience and training in outreach and education as a naturalist.
