Curriculum Vitae: 

I serve as a liaison between the USA National Phenology Network (USA-NPN) National Coordinating Office (NCO) and USA-NPN partners to achieve common phenology-related goals. USA-NPN partners include individuals and organizations representing communities of researchers, land managers, policy-makers, citizen scientists, and educators. Through our partnerships we seek to encourage and maintain the participatory spirit of the USA-NPN and the involvement of diverse user groups.

I am also adjunct faculty with the Office of Arid Lands Studies and pursue research interests in phenology, plant ecology and spatial analysis. I enjoy applied science projects in formal and informal settings and engaging citizen scientists of all ages in scientific discovery
