Christine is in her final year of her undergraduate degree, focusing her honours thesis on wildfire burn severity and ecosystem response in the forest-tundra ecotone. Working three field seasons in the Fire and Vegetation department of Banff National Park's resource conservation unit and one season of firefighting with the BC Wildfire Service, Christine developed an interest in disturbance regimes and dynamics through a landscape ecology lens. Growing up in the east kootenays has fueled her love of the outdoors and beer. |
