About As a VP of Science and Conservation for CPC, I facilitate data sharing and collaborative research in our network of world class plant conservationists. I develop and maintain the CPC data resources including our National Collection, Reintroduction Database, Pollinator Database, and Regional Seed Collection Databases. I look forward to answering question about: R programming, bioinformatics, data sharing, plant ecology. In a previous life, I did my graduate thesis on nutrient cycling in a Panamanian montane forests, so I'm always up for a good phosphorus chat. I'm not a great botantist, but my current fave family is Malvaceae: hibiscus is the only thing my tortoise will eat, and the apricot mallow in my yard is glorious.
