Open Science

At its best, science is a collaborative effort to create knowledge that benefits everyone. Sharing this knowledge includes sharing data, white papers, code, and other scientific products to increase its accessibility and utility. I am committed to the philosophy of open science, and I am increasingly incorporating this philosophy into my workflow, while respecting the wishes of private landowners and partners.
