PeerJ Author

Summary

I received a BS and M.S. in Biology from the University of South Alabama and a Ph.D. in Biological Science from the University of Missouri. I also completed post-doctoral training at Ohio State University and was employed by the Ohio Division of Wildlife, where I served as the state’s furbearer biologist for over 10 years. Most of my recent research has been dedicated to threatened and endangered forest wildlife species, and I have worked extensively with the previously state-endangered bobcat. In addition to bobcats, I have worked with several carnivore species, authoring over two dozen peer-reviewed papers. I have served on several executive boards and committees within The Wildlife Society and the American Society of Mammalogists. Currently, I am dedicated to independent wildlife conservation research in Ohio’s Appalachian region through a nonprofit institute that I founded.

Regarding editing, I emphasize in organismal biology, and my areas of expertise are highly varied and range from disease and genetics to species conservation and disturbance ecology. I have over 20 years of peer review experience, have reviewed articles for over 20 journals, and served as an Associate Editor for the Journal of Mammalogy, which covered all aspects of mammalian biology for 3 years.

Research
Currently, I am a research biologist dedicated to wildlife conservation, primarily mammalian carnivores, in Ohio’s Appalachian region. In addition to conservation work, I am interested in population genetics, disease, behavior, community dynamics, and landscape ecology.
