My work centers on reconstructing the life histories of Chinook Salmon, primarily using eye lens isotopes, to uncover connections between habitat use, environmental change, and population resilience. I’m passionate about making science actionable, and the projects I contribute to often involve collaboration with agencies and researchers across California to support conservation strategies. Whether I’m processing samples in the lab, analyzing data in R, or translating findings into insights that inform on-the-ground efforts, I’m driven by a deep commitment to ecological integrity and environmental justice.
