About

I am a Research Ecologist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum. My research investigates various topics related to plant ecology, conservation, and ecological restoration. See Jared’s CV.

In my spare time, I enjoy birding, botanizing, and generally exploring the natural world. I have a special affinity for (some might say obsession with) lilies, ducks, and mapping.
