Research focusThe decisions we make today in conservation will have long-reaching effects. I go to work each day excited to be part of a community of people working to conserve endangered species for the health of our planet and the enjoyment of future generations.
Good decisions are made based on understanding the relationships between actions and outcomes. The research in my lab sits at this nexus, co-developed with land stewards and communities to improve conservation outcomes. Working together, we can transform the Hawaiian Islands from the 'Extinction Capital of the World' to the 'Recovery Capital of the World'. |
