About:

My research goals can be summarized as ‘advancing solutions for society’s most pressing issues for stream fish conservation’.  My research works across spatial scales to investigate the most critical threats to stream fishes - from mitigating the demographic and genetic effects of small, fragmented populations, to our ability to detect changes at the population level following management interventions.

My research program tackles these two complementary problems where I use a wide range of analytical and genetic techniques to make robust inferences about population dynamics and success of conservation interventions.  

These topics include:

1. Understanding and mitigating threats to imperiled populations

2. Evaluating population level changes following management interventions

3. Impacts of environmental drivers on population dynamics
