Incoming graduate student in the Francis Lab at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo -- Studying avian responses to sound and light pollution. I'll be splitting my time between San Luis Obispo and Durango, Colorado for the next few years. If anyone has any wildlife or plant-focused recommendations for either location, I'd love to hear them!

I am far from an expert on anything, and appreciate the opportunity to learn.

I'm a California Condor fanatic. I was lucky enough to get to spend a lot of time with them in 2023-2024 as an intern with the Ventana Wildlife Society. If you found my profile, it's probably because I gave you information about a condor -- you can get more at their condor bios page!

If you have a photo of a condor with a visible wing-tag, you can learn more about that bird by using the excellent tool CondorSpotter -- https://www.condorspotter.com/

If you've made it this far down my profile, here's some reading:
