My graduate research focused on rangeland rehabilitation of pinyon-juniper encroached sagebrush/grasslands. My most relevant professional experiences include my tenure as Agriculture Professor at Great Basin College in Elko, Nevada for seven years. I also spent seven years as a rangeland management specialist with the Natural Resources Conservation Service and in private consulting with Resource Concepts, Inc.
I am a certified professional in rangeland management and a seven-year member of the National Association of Agriculture Educators and the Nevada Agriculture Teachers Association. I have been teaching live and online college-level agriculture courses for more than seven years.
