Specific Interests
The world's population is urbanizing and maintaining access to nature within urban centers is becoming increasingly important. I am studying how the interplay of economic and biological factors influence urban conservation. In particular I am interested in using ecosystem services to better inform conservation and development decisions. My focus is on the potential for vacant urban lots to provide both habitat for biodiversity conservation within cities, as well as educational and social value for urban communities.
