I am a botanist and plant conservation scientist currently working for MN DNR as the Plant Ecologist for Central Region (R3). I previously worked for the University of Minnesota - Landscape Arboretum Plan Conservation Program and prior to that, the Native Plant Trust. For my work, I develop and implement conservation strategies for rare plants and primarily focus on species in the upper Midwest region.
