Personal Summary
Brenna was born and raised in northern Illinois where her curiosity for the natural world grew in the forests and tall grass prairies. She completed a degree in wildlife ecology at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point and spent summers during her undergraduate degree in northern Wisconsin or Yellowstone National Park. After graduating in 2012, she moved back to Yellowstone and worked on multiple projects studying birds, cougars and wolves. Her doctoral research will focus on population regulation and reproductive ecology of gray wolves in Yellowstone National Park. She can otherwise be found in the ceramics studio or trail running, biking, and skiing.
