What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead field and compliance work for projects that protect sensitive species, deliver accurate GIS-based reporting, and keep regulatory rigor and safety at the center of every decision.

I’m the Owner of Register Environmental Consulting, LLC, and I lead ESA-focused biological surveys and environmental compliance work across project sites. I conduct site assessments, coordinate permitting and scheduling, and manage soil and habitat protection efforts, including environmental impact mitigation and wildlife translocation procedures.

I also collect and analyze ecological and spatial data using GIS and environmental data platforms to support project planning and reporting. I prepare detailed technical reports and compliance records, design site-specific mitigation measures, and conduct environmental monitoring such as air quality assessments and operational evaluations.
