I have been organizing wildlife tracking workshops and classes since 2001, first in the Sky Island region of Arizona and Mexico and now in New Mexico. I have a M.A. in Environmental Studies from Prescott College, Arizona. My master’s thesis explored the theoretical and practical framework for instituting a volunteer-based wildlife tracking project and became the management model for the Sky Island Alliance’s Wildlife Monitoring Program. Partnering with local conservation organizations, I continue to organize introductory wildlife tracking workshops primarily throughout the Mexican wolf recovery area of New Mexico and Arizona. I believe that introducing people to wildlife tracking is a positive way to educate and energize individuals about nature and wildlife conservation.
