I am a master’s student at the University of Montana. My project aims to predict where cattle might access and cause disturbance to streams using a Fuzzy inference modeling approach. I have spent multiple field seasons working on the BLM’s Lotic Assessment Inventory and Monitoring (AIM) project through the O’Connor Center for the Rocky Mountain West (OCRMW). I enjoy spending my summer days rowing a raft down the river while occasionally throwing a fly for a rising trout.
