Graduate school in biology & ecology took her west for several years, to Alaska and then Arizona, after which she returned to New England to teach at Middlebury College in Vermont. She was a professor of biology at Middlebury from 1996 until 2020 and served as the Dean of the Faculty and Vice President for Academic Affairs from 2012 through June, 2019.
