Jonathan was born in a small town at the edge of the Canadian Rockies in Alberta, Canada, and has always been rooted in gravel bed rivers, wildflower-covered ridgelines, and shale slopes. Between semesters of his undergrad in Ecology at the University of Alberta, Jonathan landed a job as a park interpreter at Elk Island National Park. This led to working as a field technician in Banff National Park, and in 2022 Jonathan started his graduate studies at the University of Montana and is currently a PhD student studying the trophic ecology of Banff’s recently reintroduced Plains bison.
