I’m a GIS Specialist at Point Blue Conservation Science and a masters student at San Francisco State University who focuses on using species location data and remotely-sensed environmental covariates to explore the impacts of our changing world on wildlife.
Through this site I hope to share my experiences, both professional and personal because my life is not just one or the other. They are intertwined. One influences the other. I want to explore the journey of how I went from an urban “at-risk” kid growing up in the gritty streets of Los Angeles to an ecologist and scientist working with a team to help discover how nature and wildlife tick and what we can do to provide them with a voice. I also want to share stories about the work I am a part of to help build connections, ideas, and perhaps a bit of inspiration for myself and others.
