Currently working on: Applying an evolutionary ecological understanding to help reconcile human development with biodiversity conservation, particularly in urban environments, both locally in several US cities, and globally with comparative studies.

Talk with me about:

• Biology, Ecology, Zoology, Public Science
• Higher education (undergrad/postgrad), public outreach
• Community-based public science engagement
• Indigenous knowledge and how to decolonize “western science” and build connections with indigenous science
• Citizen / public science projects to map the distribution of birds and other species in cities, and the impacts of climate-change driven disasters like hurricanes
