ABOUT ME

Nyika Campbell

1/3

I am currently a Crew Lead and Plant Biological Science Technician with the U.S. Forest service's Rocky Mountain Research Station in Missoula. I have a passion for alpine ecology and cold environments. I graduated in 2021, summa cum laude, from the university of Colorado, Boulder with a bachelor's degree in in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and a minor in Visual Arts. While there, I worked with Dr. William Bowman and Chiara Forrester investigating the impacts of early warming and snowmelt on the seedling recruitment and phenology of the alpine flower Geum rossii.

When I am not doing field work I enjoy hiking, climbing, and creating art in all media.
