Background
Hi! I am currently a postdoctoral research associate in Jessica Stephenson's lab at the University of Pittsburgh. I combine my intellectual curiosity about parasites with my passion for conservation biology and field work to address host-parasite ecology, transmission dynamics, and applied conservation. When not engaged in research, you can find me herping, hiking and hanging out with my dog- usually near a river.
