I am an ecosystem ecologist working with Working Lands Conservation and the Lien lab at the University of Arizona.

I received my PhD in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology in 2022 working in the Schweitzer lab at the University of Tennessee.

 

I have worked in a variety of ecosystems ranging from tropical forests to deserts to working lands. In my research I integrate

field observations, biogeochemistry and molecular biology laboratory techniques, glasshouse experiments,

genomic sequencing, and bioinformatics.

​

I am passionate about using rigorous and translatable science in conjunction with stakeholder partnerships to facilitate effective land stewardship and climate change mitigation.
