Biography

I grew up in Southeastern Wisconsin, attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and received degrees in Zoology and Conservation Biology. While working for Oregon Dept. of Fish and Wildlife I also received a Graduate Certificate in Fisheries Management from Oregon State University.  Over the last few years I have traveled the US following fisheries technician jobs--working with endangered bull trout in Idaho, with Chinook salmon in Oregon, then back to Wisconsin to work with Northern pike. My interests include paddling, hiking, knitting, baking and trying my hand at high plains gardening!
