I am a research faculty member in the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife at Oregon State University.  I work in aquatic ecosystems and have a broad range of research interests including fish ecology, aquatic-terrestrial linkages, stream biogeochemistry, and stream restoration.  My current research focuses on factors that directly and indirectly influence fish production and fish distribution in streams.  This work has implications for stream restoration efforts and stream management to mitigate impacts of species invasion and changing climate conditions.
