Welcome to my personal website!
I am a soil geographer with the USDA-National Soil Survey Center based in Las Cruces, New Mexico at the Jornada Experimental Range. My work broadly bridges the disciplines of soil and ecology, and focuses on creating tools and technology to deliver reliable soils and ecological information to aid land mangers, farmers, and developers to make sustainable and healthy land management decisions.
