Dan is a Geneticist with more than a decade of experience in fisheries science. Dan’s specialty is in applied ecology and population genetics, including environmental DNA applications. Prior to joining CFS, he served as the founding partner at Rogue Biological Consulting in Portland, OR, where he helped public utilities, tribes, and government agencies meet natural resources management objectives. Dan also spent several years as a fisheries biologist with the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and the U.S. Forest Service where his work concentrated conservation issues facing Pacific salmon and trout. He has authored numerous journal articles focused on the application of science in natural resources management. Dan was the External Director of the Oregon Chapter of the American Fisheries Society in 2017 and has served as Vice President of the Northwest Association of Environmental Professionals since 2018.
