I've been an extension forester for the Central Sierra since 2006 focusing on forest resilience from wildfire, drought and increasing disturbances. My work includes applied research, outreach and education on forest stewardship. In the last few years, I've developed a statewide forest stewardship education program, a post-fire education program, and started two new prescribed burn associations. I am a California Registered Professional Forester.
