I began my career as a Wildlife Biologist in 1980. My areas of interest: large mammal prey and predator ecology and behavior. My career choices are driven by opportunities to experience new landscapes and habitats while gaining additional hands on knowledge of prey and predator ecology.

Over the past 25 years, I have spent significant time in the field/backcountry — over 5,000 days. I have built a strong reputation as a highly capable field biologist with the skills and experience to help programs meet their goals and objectives. I have extensive experience with a variety of species: cougar, black and grizzly bear, wolf, elk, bighorn sheep, mountain goat and caribou. I have captured, immobilized and handled over 1,000 animals, conducted well over 1,000 telemetry flights and 1,000+ hour aerial surveys. I place the highest standards on the fieldwork I conduct personally, as well as that of individuals I have trained and supervised. This relates most particularly to the integrity of the data I collect and the safety and respect for the project field staff I work with as well as the animals I capture and monitor.
