-The School of Natural Resources & Environment new student orientation at the U-M Biological Station (Pellston, MI) is currently featured on the U-M homepage! Main photo shows me with several new students during the electrofishing activities on the Sturgeon River near UMBS. I’ve helped out/led the electrofishing activities for 5 years (this year was my final year), and we have always caught some big fishes!

-Migrating to the Windy City!–
-It’s official! I have accepted a postdoctoral research position at the D.P. Haerther Center for Conservation and Research at Shedd Aquarium in Chicago! This is also a joint position with University of Wisconsin – Madison (I’ll be primarily based out of Chicago). My research supervisors will be Dr. Chuck Knapp (Shedd Aquarium) and Dr. Pete McIntyre (University of Wisconsin). The research will focus primarily on Great Lakes migratory fishes, although we will be developing other aquatic conservation ecology projects as well. I’ll be going through a transitional period between Ann Arbor and Chicago this fall, which will allow me to wrap up my current research/work at the University of Michigan while also learning the ropes at Shedd/U-Wisconsin. I have several other updates to post, and will try to keep up as the current research concludes and the new projects start up!–
