1. My research focus.  I work on community based conservation – mostly with an aquatic focus, mostly through combining ecology, history and conservation biology. I have projects working with communities (and friends) in Fiji as well as those within New York State as well.
2. Why I enjoy mentoring. I like helping people explore the multiple paths and futures that lie within them. I enjoy the chance to help make other peoples’ journeys easier through learning from the (many) mishaps I’ve had along my own journey, and I love helping people learn how to define their own meaning of success.
3. My professional values. There’s a great quote “In academia, everyone is smart, distinguish yourself by being kind”. I may not always live up to that, but it’s what I fall back to whenever I need guidance in my professional life.
