I'm a post-doctoral researcher at the Carnegie Institution for Science at Stanford where I do research on climate change impacts on ecosystems and agriculture. My interest in iNaturalist stemmed from a desire to scale the biodiversity data we need to make good conservation decisions. I've been co-directing iNat with Ken-ichi Ueda since November 2010. This semester, I'll be lecturing a geography class at UC Berkeley that will rely heavily on iNat.
