About

I am a certified Professional Wetland Scientist with a B.S. in Ecology & Evolutionary Biology from the University of Tennessee. I've held various positions in the environmental sciences as an analytical organic chemist, restoration ecologist, state water quality regulator, field ecologist, and project manager. Working in both the public and private sectors I have gained over twenty years of experience in land planning; natural resources management; aquatic resource evaluation, assessment, identification, delineation, mapping, mitigation, and preservation; floristic quality analysis and vegetative community mapping; technical report writing; regulatory permitting; and protected species assessment and management. I look forward to tackling new challenges here at Barr and offer my services regarding all things ecology.
