Assistant Outreach Professor of Tree Biology Structure and Health I am strongly interested in tree health and raising awareness of the benefits provided by trees. As a field biologist, I have studied the impact of invasive insects and microorganisms on tree health and used this knowledge to develop management and surveillance tools while engaging land managers and the public in education programs. My early career as a forester focused on the management of natural and urban tree resources. I have held positions with non-governmental and governmental organizations, universities, and private companies in different countries. My work involved field and laboratory studies; data collection and analysis; development of protocols; use of photography; team, project and partnership coordination; capacity building; education and outreach.
