Conservation Biology
My research interests are in the long-term study on the conservation biology of the Wood Turtle (Glyptemys insculpta) in northern Michigan; conservation biology of the Eastern Box Turtle (Terrapene c. carolina) in southwestern Michigan; and the biology and demographics of a suburban population of the Blanding's Turtle (Emydoidea blandingii) in southern Michigan.
