I am an avid outdoors person and naturalist. I am most experienced with plants and birds, but also have experience with insect identification through my work with the Canadian Forest Service as an insect ecology research assistant. I am a graduate of the BSc Environmental Science program at Royal Roads University and the Environmental Technology Diploma at Camosun College. I spend a lot of my time in East Sooke Park and the Sooke Hills, with adventures to Strathcona Park and the Port Renfrew area.
