<span class=apple-style-span>Vicki Wojcik is an optimistic ecologist and city
dweller that believes human populations and the natural world can coexist. Her
graduate research focused on understanding the factors that influence the
occurrence<font color="#333333"><span style='color:#333333'> of bees in cities.
This focus on pollinators in human-dominated landscapes has continued into her
professional career. As part of the P2 science team Dr. Wojcik develops and
manages studies that investigate how pollinators interact with managed
agriculture, industrial lands, and urban landscapes. Dr. Wojcik also works with
the P2 consulting team to restore and rehabilitate private and corporate lands
for pollinators. Vicki received her B.Sc. Honours from the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceType
w:st="on">University</st1:PlaceType> of <st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Guelph</st1:PlaceName></st1:place>
in 2004 and her Ph.D. in Environmental Science, Policy, & Management from
UC Berkeley in 2009. Her work has been published in peer-reviewed journals,
books, magazines, and industry publications. Dr. Wojcik also holds an
appointment as an adjunct lecturer in biology at the <st1:PlaceType w:st="on">University</st1:PlaceType>
of <st1:PlaceName w:st="on">California</st1:PlaceName>, <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Berkeley</st1:place></st1:City>. When she isn’t professionally
planning and managing landscapes for pollinators you can find Vicki in her home
garden in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">San Francisco</st1:place></st1:City>
helping the local urban bee population. </span></font></span><font
