Hi there, I'm Noah.
I'm a third-year PhD candidate of Ecology in the Department of Environment and Society at Utah State University. I'm working with my advisor, Dr. Chris Monz, in the Recreation Ecology Lab.
I study the dynamics of recreation management in park and protected area settings through the lens of a social-ecological system. By understanding the interactions and interconnectedness of the human and ecological dimensions, my research helps inform sustainable management of protected areas by maintaining opportunities for recreation use and meeting the habitat and conservation goals of these settings.
Feel free to check out my Publications, CV, and ongoing Research.
Thanks for stopping by!
