Research Interest: How to rematriate nur (salmon) on the Winnemem Waywaket (McCloud river) with the Winnemem Wintu Tribe using Indigenous Traditional Ecological Knowledge (ITEK). Finding the intersection of Western Science and ITEK is something I am excited to be a part of and interested in studying. I am interested in continuing to research natural conservation methods and how we can work more in harmony with the natural state of rivers.
