Background
I received my BS and MS from Michigan State University (MSU) in Fisheries and Wildlife and gained much experience in conducting field research aimed to inform natural resource management. Currently, I live in Lansing, MI and fish as much as my schedule will allow. I enjoy learning, living simply and eating healthy. Recently, I have become more interested in politics and other efforts to which help protect our natural resources.
Hobbies and Interests
In my spare time I enjoy getting outside and being active. Some of my favorite outdoor activities are fishing, kayaking, golfing and playing a variety of other outdoor games like football, basketball and frisbee. Nature photography and videography is another hobby of mine. Using my GoPro I document many of my fishing adventures and like incorporating it into my research. Recently, I have picked up fly-fishing and have been enjoying learning to tie my own flies!
