Francine is a PhD Student in the department of the Natural Resources and the Environment, and her research involves the illegal wildlife trade in Vietnam, conservation efforts in Southeast Asia, and the Southern African trophy hunting industry. Having attended Cornell for both undergrad and graduate school, Francine shares her journey to Southeast Asia, as well as useful Southeast Asian language resources for those interested.
