Responsibilities

​Provide data management, database development, and technical/analytical support for the Mammals Research, Avian Research, Wildlife Health, and Species Conservation Teams within the Terrestrial Section at Colorado Parks and Wildlife.

Areas of Interest and Expertise​

My interests lie in bridging the gap between technology and on-the-ground work within wildlife science and the greater natural resources community, bringing data-related ideas to life and working through the technical challenges to do so. I enjoy building custom database solutions from the ground up, tailoring front-end applications and back-end databases to the specific needs of researchers and biologists. I am also dedicated to implementing data management strategies that ensure long-term preservation and maximize future usability of data. My areas of expertise lie in database development and management, application development, data analysis, data quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC), and geographic information systems.
