About
Scientist, Photographer, Conservationist
Growing up between the United States and Costa Rica shaped my lifelong passion for natural history, animal behavior, and wildlife conservation. I’m a classically trained field biologist and behavioral ecologist, with a Ph.D. in Biology and over a decade of experience studying wildlife in the field.
Photography first became part of my work as a tool for studying animal behavior. Since then, my work has reached broad audiences through scientific research, international publications, conservation storytelling, and award-winning photography.
Today, I combine science and photography to tell stories of wildlife and conservation—from the behavior of animals in the wild to the people behind the intrepid fieldwork advancing science and protecting our natural world. Above all, I hope my work inspires curiosity, deepens our appreciation for wildlife and wild places, and creates advocates for their conservation.
