Camille received a B.S. in Forestry from the University of Minnesota and a M.S. in Plant Pathology from the University of California, Davis. She has extensive experience as a forest health specialist and forest biologist. As a post-graduate researcher, she studied the response of forest insects and disease to large scale disturbance events in Northern Minnesota and Alaska. This work inspired her to pursue a Master’s degree focused on a destructive pathogen causing widespread mortality in California's coastal forests. Since joining TERC’s Forest and Conservation lab she has worked on various projects to gain a better understanding of forest insect and disease ecology, forest dynamics, phenomics of 5-needle pines, and the development of innovative reforestation practices.
