Position
  • Postdoctoral Research Associate
I am an evolutionary ecologist interested in understanding the mechanisms that underlie patterns of biological diversity. I have broad interests at the intersection of ecology and evolution, especially those related to competition, niche partitioning, adaptation, and speciation. As a postdoc in Eric Riddell's lab, I am expanding my work to include evolutionary and ecological physiology. Most of my work focuses on birds, but I am deeply fascinated by all forms of life.
