I was born and raised in Houston, TX but have lived in Austin, TX, since 2010.
Professional chef turned veterinary assistant and wildlife rehabber.
In addition to working full time at Austin Wildlife Rescue I am also a longtime volunteer at Austin Bat Refuge where I assist in the care of non-releasable bats and the rescue and rehabilitation or local bats.

I have a Level 3 certification in Wildlife Track and Sign via Cyber Tracker North America, and have been active in wildlife tracking since 2020 thanks to the tracking intensive at Earth Native Wilderness School

I was certified as a Texas Master Naturalist in 2022 and I’m a member of the Good Water chapter.
I completed the Master Volunteer Entomology course in 2023.

I spend a lot of my time researching and tracking beavers in central Texas and manage the Texas Beavers collection project:

I also spend a lot of my time in Williamson creek and manage a collection project for Central Williamson Creek:

I love exploring creeks, ponds, ditches, etc. My current hobbies include tracking, birding, rock collecting, and trying to see a river otter IRL. (Accomplished!!)
My favorite animal is an alligator, followed by goats, monkeys, and raccoons.
