I am a Senior Research Associate in the Center for Avian Population Studies at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. I direct BirdCast and BirdVox. I began birding at age 5 and quickly developed long-standing fascinations with bird migration. My current research efforts advance the use and application of rapidly expanding technologies to study bird movements across scales including weather surveillance radar, audio and video recording and monitoring tools, citizen science datasets, and machine learning techniques. Education: BS Natural Resources, Cornell, MS Zoology, Clemson University; PhD, Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Cornell University.
