Hi! I’m Kate

I’m an Assistant Professor of Forest Ecology at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. I work in the intersection of paleoecology, landscape and disturbance ecology, studying how ecosystems change over time and space.

I’m interested in how changing disturbance regimes alter ecosystems and how we can make science more open and accessible.
