Welcome!
I am an ecologist, with particular interests in quantitative population ecology, community ecology, and education. I currently work as a postdoctoral research associate in the Haub School of Environment and Natural Resources at the University of Wyoming. My principal research goal as an ecologist is to create new knowledge that will be useful for protecting and restoring organisms and ecosystems that have been compromised or are susceptible to change. I completed my PhD at the University of Wyoming in the Doak Lab (now at CU Boulder), through the Program in Ecology.
Communicating science, teaching, and mentoring students are fulfilling aspects of my work in science. I am currently developing my pedagogical skills as a fellow in the UW Science Initiative Learning Actively Mentoring Program. As a Graduate Fellow of the UW Science Posse, an NSF GK–12 program, I taught a variety of biology and ecology topics to thousands of students throughout Wyoming.
