Welcome to my website! I am an Associate Professor in the Forest, Rangeland, and Fire Sciences department in the College of Natural Resources at the University of Idaho. 

My research focuses on characterizing and understanding wildfire, invasive species, humans and other large, ecological disturbances across the landscape. I particularly like to use GIS and remote sensing to accomplish this.
