Personal profile
Research Interests
During my reasearch career, I focused on development and application of quantitative methods to ecological problems, primarily in wildlife population dynamics. I strived to connect ecological theory to wildlife management problems and in doing so improve wildlife management and test ecological theory. My work crossed a broad spectrum of taxa from rare seabirds to hunted ungulates.
My current work focuses on research administration and graduate education.
