I am passionate about sharing my love of nature and helping others connect with wildlife and the outdoors. I am an assistant professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at MacEwan University, and as an educator my goal is to connect others with the natural world. I am a wildlife biologist and my current research focuses on monitoring Franklin’s ground squirrels in Alberta. I am also exploring how conservation messaging affects feelings of empowerment in undergraduate students.
Outside of work, I love the outdoors and spend my time hiking, hunting, fishing, and gardening. I spend a lot of time with my labrador retrievers Amy and Starling as we train for various dog sports and bird hunting. I also have two cats Jake and Minnie who also get trained along with the dogs – they even know some tricks!
