Surveying & Monitoring Nevada's Ecosystems

Principal scientists and owners of Silver Sage Eco, Cody Ernst-Brock and Todd Granberry, have been conducting rigorous ecological and botanical surveys across the intermountain west and desert southwest since 2007. Prior to forming their current company in 2019, they worked in a variety of positions within ecological research and data analysis in the public and private sectors. Past employers have included the University of Nevada, Reno, the Great Basin Institute, and environmental consulting and engineering companies. Silver Sage Eco has collaborated on a wide variety of ecological monitoring projects throughout the Great Basin with local and regional organizations and looks forward to continue participating in the growth and development of the northern Nevada community.

Cody and Todd were both born and raised in Fairbanks, Alaska and independently moved to Reno in 2004 to attend the University of Nevada Reno (UNR). First meeting in an Ecology class and later obtaining Biology degrees, they ended up working together at a local environmental non-profit where they supervised ecological monitoring programs for the state (Nevada Department of Wildlife) and federal (Bureau of Land Management) government. Silver Sage Eco has collaborated on a wide variety of ecological monitoring projects throughout the western states with local and regional organizations and looks forward to continued participation in the growth and development of our communities.
