More
I am a wildlife veterinarian and epidemiologist, with experience both domestically and internationally working at the intersection of human, domestic and wild animal, and ecosystem health. My research interests range from infectious disease ecology, to veterinary medical contributions to endangered species conservation, and the development of scientifically sound and humane management options for invasive species such as feral cats. I previously worked as Regional Field Veterinarian for the Mountain Gorilla Veterinary Project in Rwanda, Uganda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo; as Staff Veterinarian at the Marine Mammal Center, Sausalito, CA; and as the founding Assistant Director of Veterinary International Programs at North Carolina State University. As Director of the International Veterinary Medicine (IVM) program at the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, I mentor veterinary students interested in exploring research and service projects, as well as clinical rotations, in other countries.
The motivating force behind all my work is an abiding curiosity about the world and a commitment to ensure that our planet continues to sustain the astounding diversity and inextricably linked systems upon which all life depends.
