Conservation • Stewardship • GIS • Public Service

Committed to Stewardship

I help conservation work move forward across landscapes, communities, and public service.

My background includes Tribal stewardship, GIS, forestry, working lands, conservation finance, field research, public engagement, and partnership-based project management. Across that work, I stay focused on how land, water, people, infrastructure, policy, funding, and long-term care connect.

A whole landscape lens

Conservation is connected work.

Good stewardship rarely fits inside one program, one map layer, one funding source, or one resource area.

Land, water, and working landscapes

I am interested in conservation across forests, farms, wetlands, prairies, transportation corridors, watersheds, and community spaces.

Tribal engagement and consultation support

I bring experience supporting Tribal stewardship projects, partner coordination, technical communication, and respectful relationship-based engagement.

GIS, data, and decision support

I use spatial tools and field-informed analysis to help people see patterns, evaluate options, and move from ideas to practical stewardship outcomes.

Public service and stewardship

Grounded in conservation that serves communities.

My work sits where land, water, infrastructure, policy, funding, and community priorities come together.

I value public service because conservation depends on trust, continuity, practical implementation, and respectful relationships with communities most connected to the land.

Experience in practice
