I have years of experience around wildlife. I grew up hunting, fishing, camping and hiking; which is where my passion and respect for wildlife began. I began volunteering for a wildlife area close to my hometown, where I got my feet in the water before I started attending the University of Rio Grande, where I study Fish & Wildlife Conservation, as a full time student. I am a senior in the program, set to graduate May 11th, 2024. I have experience working with the public in wildlife areas, as I worked at Falcon Camp, as their Head of Woodslore. I also acted as a temporary Fishing Head. I have worked with Dr. Linda Sigismondi, Dr. Don Althoff, and Dr. Wayne Rossiter in the including activities: owl banding, tree frog surveys, SFS Checks, radio telemetry, collecting stool samples, soil sampling tests,salamander trapping and surveys, fish behavioral analysis, aquatic turtle survey, bat monitoring, and much more.
