I have been working with wildlife research and natural resources conservation since 2010. My experience reflects my interest in stream ecology, endangered species demographics and habitat requirements, spatial modeling, and assessing species status using molecular approaches. As a private land’s biologist, I am excited to transition from research into management, and assist with the implementation of conservation practices that will enhance Hellbender habitat across several watersheds in Tennessee.

Hellbender Proposed for Endangered Species Act Protection: A Call to Action for Aquatic Conservation
-
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) has proposed to protect the Eastern Hellbender (Cryptobranchus alleganiensis) as endangered under the Endangered Species Act. This proposal addresses the dramatic decline in Hellbender populations due to habitat loss, water pollution, and other factors. The proposal builds on years of collaborative conservation work and scientific study, highlighting the need to safeguard this species to maintain the health of freshwater ecosystems. This proposed rule would extend protection to hellbenders across their range, from New York to Georgia.
