I am a research scientist for the USDA and Associate Professor at Utah State University. I received my B.S. degrees at Texas A&M University, a M.S. at Iowa State University, and a Ph.D. at Utah State University. I held postdoc positions with Arizona State University and Wildlife Conservation Society. I am now the project and field station leader for the Predator Research Facility. My research focuses on behavior, ecology, and management of carnivores and their prey. I utilize wild and captive carnivore populations to understand and reduce human-wildlife conflict.
