Natural resource management meets at a messy intersection of biology, statistics
and human dimensions, and the resulting problems most relevant to the stakeholder
are consequently always multidimensional.
Tommy commits to incorporating all of these intersecting elements into his work as
a quantitative fish biologist. His unique interdisciplinary background in quantitative
ecology delivers a strong tool set that contributes in many ways to projects at
Cramer Fish Sciences.
Responsibilities: Tommy's responsibilities focus toward
delivering top notch and cutting-edge quantitative techniques to projects at Cramer
Fish Sciences. His background brings with him knowledge and experience in classical
and bayesian statistics, spatial statistics, stock assessment techniques,
age-structured population modeling and decision analysis. Tommy is an excellent
communicator of his quantitative work as demonstrated through presentations at
regional and national fisheries conferences and peer-reviewed publications.
Background:  Tommy
earned a B.S. in Statistics with an emphasis in Ecology and Systematic Biology at
Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, California. After finishing his undergraduate degree he headed to
Seattle, Washington where he earned a M.S. in Quantitative Ecology & Resource
Management at the University of Washington.
Personal: Tommy enjoys staying active through home projects and
outdoor activities. Recently he has taken on the craft of home
cheese-making. On the weekends he enjoys getting outside to camp, fly fish, surf,
or just about anything that will take him to new places. |
