Assistant Professor, Department of Forest and Conservation Sciences and Department of Botany at the University of British Columbia
Alex (they/them) is an Assistant Professor at the University of British Columbia. They completed their PhD at the Yale School of the Environment where their research focused on how predator-prey interactions impact the health and functioning of coastal wetland ecosystems. At UBC, they are expanding upon on this work by branching out into new wetland ecosystems while exploring the cultural implications of habitat restoration and conservation. Through this work they hope to engage in the co-creation of knowledge and sustainable solutions with local communities most directly impacted by conservation practice and policies.
