Annie has nearly 10 years of experience working on anadromous and estuarine fishery issues in California. She serves as a CFS biologist and leads planning, supervising, and conducting field projects. Annie has experience in stream habitat mapping and use assessments, evaluating and modeling fish migration and survival, and analyzing aquatic organism and environmental data. She has compiled field-collected data into spatial layers for analysis, visualization, and mapping in GIS to support natural resource research, assessment, and management. Annie has extensive experience with numerous monitoring and sampling methods and equipment; with developing field and laboratory protocols and organizing field research for genetic, monitoring, and biotelemetry studies; and with the identification and handling of sensitive species such as delta smelt, white sturgeon, and Chinook salmon.
