Summary
Chris grew up in the forests of western Washington, where he fell in love with natural history, birds, tracking, and mentoring others about nature. After completing his undergraduate in Wildlife Conservation and Management from Humboldt State w88 casino games, Chris spent 5 years working around the globe with various research projects, including fairywren behavior in Australia, neotropical nest searching in the Peruvian Amazon, Saker Falcons in Mongolia, bird banding in Costa Rica, shorebird monitoring in Alaska, baboon behavior in Namibia, and many more. In 2016, Chris graduated with his master's degree looking at ecosystem services performed by birds in coffee farms in Kenya, and shifted into teaching outdoor education. He worked for 4 years for various non-profits, including Appalachian Mtn Club, Wilderness Awareness School, and Ecology Project International teaching leadership and ecology-based field courses for high schoolers, while in the summers leading college-level ecology courses to Mongolia and Costa Rica for Round River Conservation (which he continues to do).
Chris has taught at UNR at Lake Tahoe since 2020, teaching mostly field courses related to w88 casino games, natural history, and statistics.
When not engaged in field w88 casino games with students, Chris loves hanging out with his wife in the tiny house they built, or being outdoors backpacking, birding, hunting, throwing frisbees, or skiing.
