Core Staff

Angela (she/her) is a wildlife ecologist and conservation scientist who is interested in investigating patterns in animal space use and movement across large mixed-use landscapes. Her insights into animal ecology and connectivity come by pairing field data collection with innovative techniques drawn from landscape ecology, movement ecology and data science. Fundamental to Angela’s work is her deep commitment to interdisciplinary collaborations with conservation practitioners and research scientists from NGOs, government agencies and academic institutions. These partnerships have helped a variety of stakeholders understand and develop just and effective strategies for biodiversity conservation at local, regional, and global scales.

Angela’s training includes a PhD from Montana State University where she studied elk movement, predation and disease in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, and also a Fulbright Fellowship, for which she studied predator-prey interactions and wildebeest migration in western Zambia. She also holds an MS in environmental science from Western Washington University.

Beyond her passion for science, Angela loves spending time trail running, mountain biking, skiing and hiking in the forests and mountains of British Columbia where she currently resides.
