Research/Special Interests
Mrs. Fadroski is interested in ecological questions that focus on plant-animal interactions. Her graduate worked examined the interactions between spiders and carnivorous pitcher plants. As an undergraduate, she worked primarily with endangered shorebirds in the Great Lake Region. She is the Outreach and Engagement Coordinator for the Environmental Leadership Center.
Personal Information
Mrs. Fadroski endeavors to be outside as much as possible. She finds field ecology to be an incredibly rewarding profession, and much to her children’s dismay, is constantly finding some excuse to have some sort of “nature adventure.” She also loves hiking, camping, kayaking, bird-watching (for fun), and gardening. If the weather is absolutely off-putting (thunderstorms or below freezing temperatures), Mrs. Fadroski enjoys reading and drawing.
