S&T Policy Fellowships
2016-17 Energy, Environment & Agriculture Fellow
Washington D.C. Metro Area

I'm interested in the intersection of citizen science and open science, as well as open data, biodiversity projects, and bioblitzes. My previous position was as a program manager for citizen science at the National Geographic Society where I worked on bioblitzes with the National Park Service and iNaturalist. I currently work on open data policy with the Belmont Forum e-Infrastructures & Data Management initiative (watch for upcoming multinational funding opportunities).
