Eli spent many years working in and traveling to remote wilderness areas of Alaska and Canada as a fishing and kayaking guide. Through these and other experiences he developed knowledge and skills that led him to seek an academic path geared towards the Outdoors.
He received his undergraduate degree from UC Santa Barbara in 2007 where he majored in Geographic Information Science. After several years working as an independent GIS analyst for Fire & Police Departments, Indian Tribes, and other agencies, he returned to school in 2011 to obtain a masters degree in Limnology with an emphasis in Lake Management. Eli completed his thesis on Eutrophication of Lakes and Vegetation Management in 2013.

I regularly hear clients say, “My lake never looked like this before”, and they are right. What they are describing is the aging process of eutrophication. Manmade lakes by definition are of course not naturally occurring. If a geographic location was conducive to the formation of a lake, there would likely already be one there.
As an owner of or resident on a lake in which so much wildlife is dependent, thoughtful and knowledgeable stewardship requires an understanding of how your day to day activities impact your lake. Understanding the pros and cons of your actions not just in the lake but in the surrounding watershed is vital for responsible management and your continued enjoyment.
