I provide support to the Director of Global Tree Conservation at The Morton Arboretum by helping to coordinate the Global Conservation Consortium for Oak (GCCO) through managing communications, recruiting members, planning meetings, and gathering/analyzing data; overall, working to help conserve the world’s threatened oak species. Also, I provide support to the ArbNet Coordinator in regard to the ArbNet Arboretum Accreditation Program, with a focus on supporting applications from arboreta in developing countries and biodiversity hotspots. I connect with ArbNet community members to develop and formalize collaborations and partnerships to advance the planting and conservation of trees.
